Two alternatives of magnetic cumulation

  • Published:
Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

This paper deals with phenomena leading to a considerable increase in magnetic field and energy density during compression of a magnetic flux trapped by a conducting shell and joint deformation of a magnetic field and material. The main features and merits of these two alternative schemes of magnetic cumulation are discussed. A comparison is made between the classical and schock-wave schemes of magnetic compression in a material with a phase transition from a nonconducting to a conducting state. The possibility of magnetic-energy cumulation during stretching of magnetic field line by a transverse flow of a conducting material is considered.
