Experimental Setup to Generate Spark Processes with Specified Parameters
The author describes an experimental laboratory setup for generating spark discharges in the process of alloying. A method for generating discharge pulses with a variable duration and repetition rate is described, and features of the implementation of the control circuit for power IGBT transistors are presented. Particular attention is paid to the method of detecting a spark discharge by its indirect energy characteristics, the results of the experiments to determine the modes of idling, short circuit and spark discharge are given.
