Effect of Propelling Velocity on the Restoring Force in Induction type Coil Guns

Abstract

While the projectile in the induction type coil guns is in motion, there exists an induced current in the sleeve coils of the projectile. The motion includes not only the z-axial movement but transversal movement. The projectile in coil guns, which is not supported physically, gets a force in the transversal axis to have a motion in this axis. As a result of this motion, sleeve effects are exhibited to the projectile. This paper presents the analysis of the secondary effect especially due to the propelling velocity of the projectile.
