Abstract :
Based on the studies of the combustion driven linear generator for the electric gun application, this paper presents a model that can describe the interdependence of the pressure in the combustion chamber and the output current. A computer code is finished and then the results of calculations and analysis are given, which provide guidelines to the design of generators
