Abstract:
With the improvement of electromagnetic launch technology, electromagnetic rail gun will emerged in future battlefield. A whole trajectory simulation is proposed in order to analyze ballistic characteristics. According to analysis of the whole trajectory simulation process of electromagnetic rail gun, the whole trajectory models including inner ballistics model and exterior model are developed to perform simulation task. Several simulation experiments are accomplished under the developed system. Simulation results show that the system can simulate the whole trajectory of electromagnetic rail gun. Meanwhile, the whole trajectory simulation system provides a foundation for the ballistics integration design of electromagnetic rail gun system.
