Abstract :
The parameters (time dependent resistance and time dependent inductance), especially the time dependent inductance of the field distortion spark gap largely influence the rise time of the output pulse of the pulsed power device. A new parameter estimation model, which used DFP imitation Newton method and four rank Runge-Kutta method, has been built. The value of the calculated inductance corresponds to that from experiment.
