Update of the Z Refurbishment project (ZR) at Sandia National Laboratories
E.A. Weinbrecht;D.D. Bloomquist;D.H. McDaniel;G.R. McKee;G.L. Donovan;J.W. Weed;T.V. Faturos;D.A. Tabor;C. Moncayo
2007 16th IEEE International Pulsed Power Conference
Year: 2007 | Conference Paper |
Sandia’s Z Refurbishment (ZR) Project formally began in February 2002 to increase the Z Accelerator’s utilization by providing the capability to perform more shots, improve precision and pulse shape variability, and increase delivered current. A project update was provided at the 15th International Pulsed Power Conference in 2005 [1]. The Z facility was shut down in July 2006 for structural/infras...Show More

Digest of Technical Papers. PPC-2003. 14th IEEE International Pulsed Power Conference (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37472)
Year: 2003 | Conference Paper |

If the Sandia National Laboratories' Z-Machine Marx generators and the Z-refurbishment (ZR) Marx generators are mixed to drive like-modules in parallel, the ZR banks need to be temporarily reconfigured to closely match the output waveforms of the Z banks. Otherwise, there is significant module-to-module variations and a loss of consistency at the central target region. Sandia has explored two solu...Show More
"Z" facility dielectric oil clean-up

In August of 1998, the Z facility leaked approximately 150 gallons of deionized water into the dielectric oil of its energy storage section (ESS). After processing the oil to remove existing particulate and free water, the dielectric breakdown strength increased from the mid 20 kV range to values in excess of 40 kV. 40 kV is above historical operating levels of about 35 kV. This, however, was not ...Show More
PBFA II is a 36-module ion accelerator built by Sandia National Laboratories for inertial confinement fusion studies./sup 1/ In the water-filled, pulse-forming section of the accelerator, each module is fitted with a 5.0-MV, SF/sub 6/-filled gas switch located between an intermediate storage capacitor and the first pulse forming line (Line 1). The intermediate storage capacitor is charged to 4.8-5...
