“…Invented by Andre Sakharov 1,2 (and independently by several others including Shearer 3 and Fowler 4 ) in the 1950's, these devices have been used to reach energy and current outputs unobtainable by conventional capacitor bank systems. These systems come in many forms, ranging from small flat plates to large disk and coaxial systems [5][6][7][8] .…”

A high explosive pulsed power (HEPP) generator called the Advanced Helical Generator (AHG) has been designed, built, and successfully tested. The AHG incorporates design principles of voltage and current management to obtain a high current and energy gain.Its design was facilitated by the use of modern modeling tools as well as high precision manufacture. The result was a first-shot success. The AHG delivered 16 Mega-Amperes of current and 11 Mega-Joules of energy to a quasi-static 80 nH inductive load. A current gain of 154 times was obtained with a peak exponential rise time of 20 μs. We will describe in detail the design and testing of the AHG.

In a number of single-shot applications and experiments at remote locations where flux-compression generators provide the most practicable power source, it may be necessary to use cascaded generators with inductive coupling between them to provide the required power amplification. The complexity of the resulting system appears to have so far inhibited the development of any simple but complete numerical code, and has prevented a full understanding of the complex action of the overall system. The present paper meets these requirements, by extending an existing simple 2D helical generator code, and shows how this can be used to solve problems arising from the design stage of a prototype system.
