Low Voltage Impulse Circuits

摘要

Three different types of low voltage circuits suitable for supplying impulse voltages in oscillographic work are discussed. These circuits use Thyratrons as the connecting and timing switches in place of the spark gaps ordinarily employed in transient investigations. Charged condensers are used as the source of voltage. Two circuits are of the single tube type and the third is a multiple tube system in which a number of condensers are charged in multiple and discharged in series by means of Thyratrons. Oscillograms of the voltage form obtainable in each case are given and the time lag of starting determined.
