Abstract: | A method of designing explosive-driven magnetic field generators that allows us to establish a dependence between the parameters of the generator circuit, in which the greatest energy release occurs under a time-invariant resistive load, is described. The problem of switching two-dimensional generators to a load whose resistance linearly increases with temperature is analytically solved as an example. The theoretical possibility of designing a generator in which the power released under the resistive load R(t) varies in a specified way with time is demonstrated. Types of current pulse, power, and energy released in the load are studied in the case of different generator circuit parameters.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 1, pp. 120–127, January–February, 1976.The author to wxpress his appreciation to E.
