Disk magnetocumulative generator for EMIR facility

A disk generator with a magnetic flux compression cavity of 240 mm diameter (DFCG-240) is the power base of the EMIR facility. It allows investigations to be performed with less financial expenditure. That is why analysis of DFCG-240 possibilities is of great importance. The influence of disk element quantity in a multi-element module, properties of current conducting materials and value of initial current on DFCG operation efficiency is considered. Results of some experiments on parameters determination of a compact disk generator are presented.
