Abstract:
1. A capacitor module for a pulse forming network which would include a plurality of such modules disposed about a central network axis in combination with a coupling module, which capacitor module comprises: a capacitor unit oriented in a radial direction with respect to a central axis of the network, the capacitor unit having an outer end wall, an inner end wall and flat side surfaces that extend between the outer and the inner end walls; wherein the outer end walls and inner end walls are aligned substantially normal to the radial direction, with the outer end wall being wider than the inner end wall and with the flat side surfaces being non-parallel and tapering radially-inward so that the capacitor unit is wedge-shaped and tapers inward from the outer end wall to the inner end wall, and which coupling module is also oriented in the radial direction and has radially outer and inner end walls and side surfaces; the radially outer end wall of the coupling module being interconnected with the inner end wall of the capacitor unit, the radially outer end wall of the coupling module being wider than its inner end wall so that the coupling module also tapers inward.
