A note on the limiting thermal load for flash tubes

  • Published:
Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

An expression is derived for the dependence of the limiting discharge energy in flash tubes on the duration of the discharge. The influence of the physical properties of the wall material, the shape of the pulse, and the constructional features of the lamp is studied.
