    Lyall Cooper Dr. Dann ASR – D Block 10 May 2012 The Mighty Railgun (All Bark no Bite) I. Abstract The idea of this project is to build a railgun capable of firing a small metal projectile at substantial velocity. The original plan was to build iterative prototypes capable of firing small projectiles, and using them to figure out the ideal design for the final version, but the smaller versions were not very successful due to their relative lack of power, so it was difficult to use them to learn what to do. The final, largest scale railgun is powered by a bank of capacitors with an equivalent capacitance of 24.6mF charged to around 350V. This produces 3013.5J of energy discharged over approximately 58.75 µs (it varies for each firing), drawing a peak of about 1425A when firing a projectile (it once again varies) and about 1600A when not firing a projectile (short circuiting the rails). The railgun is capable of consistently firing a small piece of metal (usually aluminum or copper); however the projectile does not usually travel very far, although this is hard to measure due to the nature of the gun and the speed at which the firing takes place. II. Introduction Electricity is often seemingly mysterious, but we have come to accept and understand how through the interaction of electric and magnetic fields we can create a simple motor, as we did in the first semester. A railgun is just a linear electric motor, at very high speeds. What makes it different, however, is that it uses neither magnets nor coils of wire, and relies entirely on the induced magnetic field in the rails due to the extremely large current to produce a Lorentz Force to propel the projectile (which will be discussed in greater depth in the theory section).

  • Parameters Effects on Force in Tubular Linear Induction Motors with Blocked Rotor
    Proc. of the 5th WSEAS/IASME Int. Conf. on Electric Power Systems, High Voltages, Electric Machines, Tenerife, Spain, December 16-18, 2005 (pp92-97) Parameters Effects on Force in Tubular Linear Induction Motors with Blocked Rotor REZA HAGHMARAM(1,2), ABBAS SHOULAIE(2) (1) Department of Electrical Engineering, Imam Hosein University, Babaie Highway, Tehran (2) Department of Electrical Engineering, Iran University of Science & Technology, Narmak, Tehran IRAN Abstract: This paper is concerned with the study of several parameters effects on longitudinal force applied on the rotor in the generator driven air-core tubular linear induction motors with blocked rotor. With developing the motor modeling by involving temperature equations in the previous computer code, we first study variations of the coils and rings temperatures and the effect of the temperature on the rotor force. In the next section, the effect of the rotor length on the rotor force is studied and it is shown that there is an almost linear relation between the rotor length and the rotor force. Finally we have given the optimum time step for solving the state equations of the motor and calculating the force. By this time step the code will have reasonable speed and accuracy. These studies can be useful for the force motors and for finding a view for dynamic state analysis of the acceleration motors. Keywords: - Air Core Tubular Linear Induction Motor, Coilgun, Linear Induction Launcher 1 Introduction the value of coils and rings currents and calculating Tubular Linear Induction Motors (TLIMs) may the gradient of mutual inductance between coils and have unique applications as electromagnetic rings, we can calculate the force applied on the launchers with very high speed and acceleration rotor [3].
