A method for the continuous, triggered operation of a marx - generator, in particular, of a plurality of marx - generators for pressure regulation and burning detection in the spark gaps

摘要

It is a method for the continuous, triggered operation of a marx - generator, in particular of a plurality of marx - generators in the optimum operating point over a longer time period for pressure regulation and burning detection, in the spark gaps of the marx - generators is presented. For triggering, at at least one spark gap of a marx - generator increases over time, with the excess voltage is superimposed, which leads to the breakdown of the spark gap. The overvoltage value at the time of the opening is determined, and for the regulation of the pressure in the spark gap tower and / or the distance of the caps used. From the relationship between the breakdown voltage, the pressure in the switch tower and the spacing of the spherical cap of the spark gap, which is triggered in the case of a known disruptive discharge voltage and a known pressure of the distance is determined and used to a burning detection. In the case of an adjustable spherical caps, the burn-off detection on the basis of a displacement path measurement in addition to the voltage - and pressure measurement. For the temporally defined initiation of at least two marx - generators, the ignition delay of each marx - generator is measured and the trigger signals are staggered in time in such a manner that the output voltages and / or - currents of all of the marx - generators within a construction related crosstalk and litter band width to the respectively desired points in time increase.
