Design and preliminary experiment of magnetically-insulated transmission line with inductive spring

A magnetically-insulated transmission line(MITL) with inductive spring is designed according to PSpice calculation to study the energy transmission influence of the spring. A system for its calibration and diagnosis is then designed. In one shot, when the input cathode current is 90.08 kA, the output cathode current is 93.88 kA and the transmission efficiency is 95.96%. The average transmission efficiency of the experiments conducted is 92.8%. The experimental results are consistent with the theoretical analysis, validating the feasibility of the MITL.
