Abstract:Multi-stage gas switches (MSGS) are widely used in megavolt pulsed power systems due to their advantages of high withstand voltage, fast establishing time and relatively high operating frequency. Multiple operation modes, which are induced by the different breakdown sequence of each stage, are found to affect the breakdown characteristics of the gas switch. Based on the theoretical analysis of working principle, the classification of the operation mode and the factors determining the operation mode of the MSGS… Show more
