Funding: Hongtao Li is with the Institute of Fluid Physics, China Academy of Engineering Physics (CAEP), Mianyang City, Sichuan, China. (Fax:86-816-2282695; e-mail: lht680526@ 21cn.com). In order to study the physics of fast Z-pinches and research the key issues of pulse power technology, a 10MA/6MV z-pinch primary test stand (PTS) composed of 24 modules will be built in IFP. The prototype module adopted capacitive storage scheme is composed of the 6MV/300kJ Marx-generator (MG), intermediate storage capacitor (IC), laser-triggered switch (LTS), pulse forming line (PFL), water self-breakdown switch (WS), and tri-plate pulse transmission line (PTL). The measured output current of the prototype is approximate 520kA, and output voltage is approximate 2.1MV. The unique multi-stage LTS based on uniform field distribution design and multi-pin unsymmetrical WS make the prototype modules have low systemic delay jitter which is necessary for synchronization of multi-module facility. 1-δ jitter of delay of the system is less than 4ns. |
