Abstract:

The experimental setup for the investigation of the volt-ampere characteristics of wire explosions consisted of a pulsed - current generator and a system for recording voltage on the wire and current in the discharge curcuit. The recording was carried out simultaneously with two OK-17M oscillographs. One of these was used to obtain time dependences Ut and It. The second oscillograph recorded the v-a c of the electrical explosion of a wire the horizontal-scanning generator in this case was switched off and the signal from the divider was supplied to the horizontal plates. Copper, chrome, aluminum and nickel wires were used. Author
