Synthesis of Combined Power Sources Based on High-Voltage Electrochemical Explosion

Abstract—A stepwise algorithm was developed for the synthesis of combined power sources based on high-voltage electrochemical explosion (HVECE). These sources ensure the necessary spatial-temporal force and energy effects on objects of treatment to perform specific technological operations. Initially, a power source is synthesized based on high-voltage electrical discharge in condensed media through solving inverse synthesis problems. This determines the required total energy, which is then optimally divided into electrical and chemical components. The dependences of the force impact on the object of treatment on the energy characteristics of HVECE were experimentally studied. Based on the experimental results, criteria for the optimal division of the required total energy into the electrical and chemical components were established. A specific application example of the developed algorithm for the synthesis of a combined power source based on HVECE is provided, which confirmed that it can be used for engineering calculations.
