Abstract

In order to further investigate the influence of different structural parameters of the armature on the performance of the electromagnetic rail gun, the Ansys Maxwell simulation software is used to simulate and obtain the results of different diversion arc angle, width and center circle radius of the armature. In order to further investigate the influence of different structural parameters of the armature on the performance of the electromagnetic rail gun, the Ansys Maxwell simulation software was used to obtain the magnetic induction strength and maximum electromagnetic thrust values for different diversion arc angles, widths and radii of the center circle. The simulation results show that for the design of the rail gun structure, the armature width should be as small as possible within a reasonable range, the diversion arc angle should be large enough and the center circle radius should be at a suitable position, which can effectively improve the electromagnetic thrust performance of the rail gun and obtain a larger electromagnetic shielding range.
