Dynamically cored explosively pumped flux compression generator

A helical-type explosively pumped flux compression generator (HEPFCP) capable of natively generating its own electrical current in an amount required to successfully power the explosive phase of current generation required to power a load comprising:

• a. a solid propellant,
• b. an aerodynamic structure capable of directing the thrust from burning said propellant,
• c. an explosively laden dynamo armature core formed by field-coil electromagnets magnets attached to the outside of the armature,
• d. a stationary solenoid winding,
• e. a rectifier,
• f. a capacitor bank, and
• g. a load, wherein through said appropriate aerodynamic structure directs said thrust from said burning propellant such that a majority of the thrust produced will cause a centripetal acceleration of said core, rotating said explosively laden dynamo armature inside said stationary solenoid winding, and wherein the rotation of said core induces an electromotive force in said solenoid winding of said HEPFCP, causing it to act much as a stator in dynamo, and wherein said induced AC voltage is rectified into a DC current by said rectifier that then charges said capacitor bank, and wherein when said propellant burns down to said explosive core, said core will begin to expand, contacting the surrounding said solenoid winding, forming a new circuit, and the compression caused by the continuously expanding core will diminish the number of turns not short circuited, compressing the magnetic field, and creating an inductive current, and at the point of greatest flux compression, a load switch is opened, and the maximum current is delivered to said load.
