Circuit analysis and computer simulations of ZT-40M
Description
The network analysis code SCEPTRE was extensively used to predict circuit performance under both normal and fault conditions. SCEPTRE's capabilities enabled us to include realistic nonlinear models for such components as the PF iron cores, the PCB transformers, the ignition switches, and even the complicated way in which the plasma couples the two circuits. Fault conditions for which protective measures were devised include; failure to achieve gas breakdown; disruption of the plasma current; saturation of the PF iron cores; prefire of a crowbar ignitron; overvoltage due to transients on the coax cables
