Development of new dielectric materials for pulsed power applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
This study looks at the development of new dielectrics, which blend characteristic of different materials for use in high voltage capacitors and antennas. As new needs arise in electrical engineering including pulsed power ...
Advanced nanodielectric material development and scaling for use in compact ultra-high voltage capacitor prototypes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
The dielectric material employed in this effort is a proprietary nanocomposite material, MU100. The material was initially developed to shrink high frequency, high voltage, dielectric loaded antennas; however, due to its unique material...
Spectrographic temperature measurement of a breakdown arc within the rimfire gas switch
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
A procedure for obtaining the temperature of optically thick plasma is described. The plasma is in the form of a gas breakdown arc which conducts approximately 10-kJ of energy in 1-[mu]s. A spectrographic analysis of the trigger-section of the 6-MV...
Development of a gigawatt repetitive pulse modulator and high-pressure switch test stand and results from high-pressure switch tests
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The research described in this thesis documents the efforts in developing repetitively pulsed, high-pressure oil switch technology. A high-pressure oil switch has been designed and optimized for lifetime operation to more ...
Application of pulsed electric fields and magnetic pulse compressor technology in water disinfection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Pulsed electric field (PEF) is a promising technology for the non-thermal disinfection of water. Although research has already been conducted on the ...
Compact power conditioning and RF systems for a high power RF source
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
As part of the University Consortium for High Power Microwave (HPM) Integration, compact power conditioning and RF systems were investigated with a maximum diameter of 15.24 cm. A simulator of a flux compression generator ...
