in the course of designing a device for measuring the instantaneous velocity of plasma in an electrodynamic accelerator, a block diagram of the implementation of the developed method was developed. A mathematical description of the calculation of the instantaneous velocity of plasma in an electrodynamic accelerator is presented. The choice of a realizable method for measuring the instantaneous velocity of plasma in an electrodynamic accelerator using a differential-total-ratiometric coordinate function and approximating the position sensor signal by an inverse-exponential function is substantiated. Simulation of the computing unit of the device in the Micro-Cap environment has been completed.
