Abstract
Evaluation of discharge current magnitude and circuit discharge dynamics was performed on the basis of electrodynamic model for designed «Plasma focus» facility. This work investigates dependence of plasma focus current, plasma conductivity and electrons temperature on electrical engineering parameters of reactor (voltage, capacity and size of electrode system). Using obtained data, calculation of electrode system geometry was carried out. Vacuum camera for experimental research is descripted. Vacuum system of the pilot reactor uses fore vacuum unit and sensor system based on thermocouple and magnetic discharge manometers by Agilent technology. Promising ways to study the plasma focus were showed to solve applied physical problems.
