Abstract :
Helical flux-compression generators convert the chemical energy bond in explosives into electric energy. This paper briefly presents a model of, implemented in Matlab-Simulink, and simulation results for such a device. The simulation results are compared to experimental data from two experiments with identical generators but with different seed currents, influencing the resistive losses and thus the current amplification. The model is used to analyse the performance of the generator.
