Abstract
Purpose. Purpose of the article is to show the possibility of joint efficient operation of semiconductor switches and spark arresters in high-powerful high-voltage generators for obtaining nanosecond and shorter pulse fronts on a high-voltage load. Methodology. The variants of generators of power high-voltage pulses with semiconductor switches in the form of IGBT-transistors, SOS-diodes and spark dischargers as pulse front peaking spark gaps are considered. A scheme is proposed for such a generator of high-voltage pulses with nanosecond front on the basis of a linear pulsed transformer in the Tesla scheme. Results. On the complex load of the generator in the form of a serial connection of a gas bubble in water with a discharge in it and a layer of water under the bubble, voltage pulses with an amplitude of 23 kV and current pulses with an amplitude of 15 A were obtained. In this case, the pulse front, both voltage and current, on the levels 0.1-0.9, was approximately 10 ns, and the repetition rate of pulses in the load ranged from 1200 to 5000 pulses per second. Originality. A scheme is proposed for a generator of high-voltage pulses with a nanosecond front. The difference of the proposed genera-tor with a nanosecond front, high pulse repetition rate, using its high-voltage and low-voltage circuits in the discharge circuit, is the pres-ence in its composition of a linear pulse transformer and a system of peaking of pulse front using SOS diodes and spark gaps. Practical value. These generators considered in this work can find wide application in high-voltage technologies, including decontaminating water treatment, water purification by electric discharges.
