Description

Electromagnetic ejection technology is a new launching technology which uses electromagnetic force to accelerate the projectile to ultra-high sound speed. This technology can break through the speed limit of traditional gunpowder launching, and realize the accurate control of exit speed by controlling the excitation pulse current.

Four track electromagnetic launcher is a special enhanced electromagnetic launcher, which has many advantages that dual track electromagnetic launcher does not have. Its development greatly promotes the application of electromagnetic launch technology in aerospace field. In this paper, according to the practical needs of electromagnetic space launch technology, a simple four orbit electromagnetic launch device is designed and established; the finite element analysis of the model is carried out, and the electromagnetic and current characteristics are simulated, and the skin effect and proximity effect of current are obviously observed; the theoretical analysis and formula derivation of inductance gradient are carried out, and finally two kinds of inductance gradient are proposed based on the finite element theory simulation A simple example is given.
