A multi-pulse mode of operation of a magnetocumulative generator

Experimental results of generating a nanosecond high-current pulse burst by a multiwinding dynamic transformer, which is based on the principle of recuperation of the energy stored in the single primary winding, and the method of the sequential magnetic-flux trapping by several secondary windings are described. The inductive energy storage with an opening switch is used to sharpen current pulses of the generator. Six small electric capacitors are in turn charged up to ∼300 kV for ∼100 ns with a time interval of 10 μs.
