Abstract :
The acting of the devices, on which the capacitive energy store is discharged, mainly depends on the form of a current pulse. The programmed discharge mode permits to generate a current pulse of the given form, at which conditions of work of a load will be closed to optimum. The approximate theory of the "slow" transient processes of the programmed discharge is considered in the paper. The synthesis of a given current pulse is provided by the choice of the temporary program of capacitors sections discharge initiation as well as by the setting of the initial voltage of these sections. The modes, that were found by the approximate methods, have to be checked up by the computations, taking into account all elements of discharge circuits. The problems of the synthesis of the load current forming are considered.
