Ve. Okunev et al., SIMULATION OF THE DYNAMICS OF A COAXIAL MAGNETICALLY COMPRESSED DISCHARGE .1. INITIAL PHASE, High temperature, 31(2), 1993, pp. 208-214
A coaxial magnetically compressed discharge initiated by the electrica
l explosion of a thin metal foil is simulated numerically. The initial
phase is examined in a one-dimensional approximation of radiative mag
netogas dynamics. The dynamics of the initial phase of the discharge,
as well as its gas dynamic, radiative, and energy characteristics, are
studied.
