An investigation of the influence of the wet surface area of a positive electrode on the energy conversion efficiency during the electrical explosion of conductors
Abstract
Some experimental results of energy release upon the electrical explosion of conductors are presented. It is shown that an anode surface area, unlike the case of free discharge, has no great influence on the deformed membrane characteristics checked. Some recommendations for electrode systems geometry using exploding conductors are given.
