ELECTRO-SPARK EXTRUDING

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0602483 | Open PDF

Abstract:

General design criteria consisting of working pressure, pressure source, shock loading and preliminary specifications of a pressure vessel to perform capacitor discharge extrusion from a 200,000 psi fluid pressure are discussed. Design criteria for the container, liner, insert and die assembly components are presented. A pumping system to obtain pressures to 200,000 psi with inhibited water is described. Fluids for use at pressures from 0 to 200,000 psi are proposed. Shielding of equipment and other safety considerations in working with ultra-high pressures are outlined.
