Abstract :
A semi-empirical model of helical magnetocumulative generators (MCGs) has been developed and is presented in this paper. A single adjustable variable, called the characteristic time, has been identified and its physical significance is discussed. The model has been applied to four different helical MCGs and the calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental results.
