Evaluation of Explosive Emission Carbon Fiber Cathodes for High-Power Microwave Devices

Tyler Buntin;Matthew Abide;Andreas Neuber;James Dickens;Ravindra Joshi;John Mankowski

IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science
Year: 2022 | Volume: 50, Issue: 10 | Journal Article |
Cited by: Papers (3)
Most high-power microwave (HPM) sources, such as the magnetically insulated transmission line oscillator (MILO) being developed at Texas Tech, utilize cold cathodes that generate electrons via explosive emission. Highly emissive cathodes such as the presented can generate current densities and currents greater than 1 kA/cm 2 and 10 kA, respectively, which are required for devices that can output r...Show More

2019 IEEE Pulsed Power & Plasma Science (PPPS)
Year: 2019 | Conference Paper |
The development of a low-impedance magnetically insulated transmission line oscillator (MILO) driven by a compact Marx generator developed by Texas Tech University is discussed. The goals of the project aim to develop a MILO operating within the S-Band that can provide an RF peak output power of greater than 1 GW with greater than 10% efficiency. The device design followed a set of base design equ...Show More

Compact Marx Generator to Drive a Low-Impedance MILO

T. Buntin;M. Abide;D. Barnett;J. Dickens;A. Neuber;R. Joshi;J. Mankowski

2019 IEEE Pulsed Power & Plasma Science (PPPS)
Year: 2019 | Conference Paper |
Cited by: Papers (4)
A low-impedance MILO is being developed at Texas Tech University, and a compact Marx generator was designed to drive it. The target design goals of the Marx are an output voltage greater than 500 kV and an output current greater than 40 kA. Risetime needs to be sub 150 ns and the pulsewidth must be greater than 100 ns. These performance goals were determined from PIC simulation of the MILO such th...Show More

Ignition Mechanisms of Polymer Bonded Explosives During Drilling

R. Clark;R. J. Lee;A.T. Hewitt;T. Buntin;D. Barnett;J. C. Dickens;W. A. Harrison;E. Tucker;J. J. Mankowski;A. A. Neuber

2019 IEEE Pulsed Power & Plasma Science (PPPS)
Year: 2019 | Conference Paper |
Cited by: Papers (3)
The drilling behavior of polymer bonded high explosives (HE) is investigated by varying drilling parameters and analyzing resultant forces and thermal response. A modified drill press enables remote operation and precise control of cutting speed, feed, and depth. To acquire temperature at the cutting interface a K-Type thermocouple is inserted in the coolant holes of thru-coolant drill bits and ep...Show More

The impact of mechanical stresses on polymer bonded high explosives, HE, is investigated. High-Speed photography in the visible spectrum, VIS, as well as mid-wave infrared (MWIR) of HE during small diameter drilling and controlled skidding is presented. Controlled drilling into the HE enables recording the size and temperature of shavings under varying feed and speeds. Even at very high drill spee...Show More

Magnetic Field Diffusion in Medium-Walled Conductors

Landon Collier;Tyler Buntin;James Dickens;John Mankowski;John Walter;Andreas Neuber

IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science
Year: 2019 | Volume: 47, Issue: 1 | Journal Article |
Cited by: Papers (4)
The diffusion of transient magnetic fields through the walls of a hollow conductive shell is an important phenomenon of interest throughout a variety of pulsed power applications. Basic solutions do exist for cylindrical geometries in the limiting case that the skin depth is much larger than the wall thickness; however, in many pulsed applications, the transient skin depth is often similar to the ...Show More

2017 IEEE 21st International Conference on Pulsed Power (PPC)
Year: 2017 | Conference Paper |
Transient magnetic diffusion through conductors of thickness comparable to the skin depth is investigated. Since an analytical solution is unavailable in this case, such magnetic diffusion results must be determined via simulation or experimentation. In the experimental approach, a sinusoidal current with peak values in the range of 20–30 kA (approx. 7 kHz ringing frequency) is passed through a tw...Show More
