双层钨丝阵的Z箍缩动力学过程研究

基于Z箍缩零维模型、丝阵碰撞假设和箍缩动能最大化的优化原则，对美国Sandia实验室Z装置的典型双层钨丝阵负载进行了优化分析，结果表明它基本上是优化的.在丝阵碰撞假设下，利用一维三温辐射磁流体力学程序对其箍缩过程进行了数值模拟，模拟结果再现了Z箍缩过程的一维时空演化过程，得到了内外层丝阵的运动轨迹和驱动电流在它们之间的转移规律，并将计算得到的宏观结果与实验结果进行了比较.表明丝阵相互作用的碰撞假设有合理性. 关键词： Z箍缩 双层钨丝阵 零维模型 一维辐射磁流体

Studies of implosion processes of nested tungsten wire-array Z-pinch

Nested wire-array is a kind of promising structured-load because it can improve the quality of Z-pinch plasma and enhance the radiation power of X-ray source. Based on the zero-dimensional model, the assumption of wire-array collision, and the criterion of optimized load (maximal load kinetic energy), optimization of the typical nested wire-array as a load of Z machine at Sandia Laboratory was carried out. It was shown that the load has been basically optimized. The Z-pinch process of the typical load was numerically studied by means of one-dimensional three-temperature radiation magneto-hydrodynamics (RMHD) code. The obtained results reproduce the dynamic process of the Z-pinch and show the implosion trajectory of nested wire-array and the transfer process of drive current between the inner and outer array. The experimental and computational X-ray pulse was compared, and it was suggested that the assumption of wire-array collision was reasonable in nested wire-array Z-pinch at least for the current level of Z machine.
