AN INVESTIGATION OF HERO PROBLEMS INVOLVING RF ARCS AND SOME PROPOSALS FOR THEIR SOLUTION
Abstract
An investigation is made of HERO problems involving RF arcs. The experimental work was divided into five phases as follows: (1) to determine if the low-frequency output of an RF arc was sufficient to fire an EED through var ious frequency discriminators; (2) to study the amplitude and wave form at the output of a lowpass filter in series with an RF arc; (3) to measure the energy output of a low-pass filter in series with an RF arc as a function of different arcing materials; (4) to determine the effect of an arc on a low-pass filter-dc relay combination; and (5) to prove the validity of results obtained in the four previous phases by full-scale ground plane tests.
