A Comparison of Velocity Skin Effect Modeling With 2-D Transient and 3-D Quasi-Transient Finite Element Methods

Abstract: Analysis of the velocity skin effect (VSE) in electromagnetic launchers (EMLs) requires a 3-D transient finite element method, unlike magnetic skin and proximity effects. However, VSE is dominant at high speeds, and this creates convergence problems when moving or deformed mesh physics is used in a transient FEM in the 3-D analysis. Commercial finite element software cannot solve the electromagnetic aspects of such a high-speed application with a transient solver in 3-D. Although 2-D approximations can be used… Show more

“…However, the F pr is not the only force that acts on the armature. Friction and drag forces, denoted as F f ric and F drag slow down the movement as in (7). F f ric can be modelled as in ( 8) [21] where µ d and µ s are dynamic and static friction coefficients respectively.…”

“…3) FEM-assisted lumped circuit method This strategy middle way between pLCM and pFEM; thus, it can be called a hybrid method. For example, the computational load of the pFEM can be diminished by a co-simulated LCM which covers the effect of the movement [5]- [7].…”

“…Many applications involve 2D and 3D both analyses to justify the quality of results. In [9], to observe the velocity skin effect on electromagnetic launchers, 2D and 3D finite element methods (FEM) is utilized. Similarly, observation of the quasi 3D model of IMs was performed in [10].…”
