Abstract

A mathematical model of electric and magnetic fields in the discharge circuit and discharge chamber of an electrohydraulic installation is developed taking into account the influence of hydrodynamic processes on the discharge channel. An algorithm for solving the obtained system of equations by numerical methods is developed. Expansion of the discharge channel in water is simulated to a geometrically nonlinear approximation, but on a fixed finite-difference grid. The mathematical model and the algorithm are tested by comparison with experimental data. The electric and magnetic fields of the discharge chamber of the electrohydraulic installation are analyzed.
