Abstract:IN ELECTROMAGNETIC RAIL LAUNCHERSUDC 537.311.5
S. V. Stankevich and G. A. ShvetsovThis paper presents a method and results of numerical simulations of current-density, magnetic-field, and temperature distributions in rail launchers of conducting solids for armatures of various shapes. A comparison is made of the results of calculations using two-dimensional and three-dimensional models. It is shown that for cylindrical and saddle-shaped armatures, Joule heating calculations performed by two-dimensional simulat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
