Abstract
This study presents a novel two-wing armature electromagnetic launcher design that aims to overcome the limitations of conventional quadrupole railguns. The proposed TWAEL system exhibits significantly enhanced magnetic field properties, achieving a 23-fold increase in magnetic flux density, an increase in magnetic field intensity, and a 1.6-fold increase in current density compared to the QRL under identical input conditions. Consequently, the TWAEL demonstrates a 6.7-fold greater electromagnetic co-energy storage capacity per unit volume, translating to substantially higher accelerative forces, reaching up to 18,045 N. Simulations validate the TWAEL's superior performance in terms of magnetic field characteristics and energy conversion efficiency, highlighting its potential as an advanced, high-performance electromagnetic propulsion system for various applications.
