Abstract
A new numerical simulation method based on the finite volume method has been proposed to address the challenges associated with the pseudo-oscillation phenomenon that occurs with an increased Péclet number, as well as determining an appropriate time step for electromagnetic-mechanical coupled physical field calculations. This method utilizes the concept of upwind from Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to solve Maxwell's equations, a finite-volume method for discretizing the electromagnetic diffusion equations. Through computing typical electromagnetic field problems such as TEAM problem 9–1 and comparing the results to the literature, it has been confirmed that this method has sufficient computational accuracy to solve electromagnetic field numerical simulation problems containing moving conductors. Additionally, a three-dimensional simulation model of the electromagnetic coil gun has been established to verify the viability of the proposed method for solving magnetic field problems under the electromagnetic launch (EML) system. The study also examined the change in magnetic field strength and current density of the EML device during the launching process. The results lay the foundation for the technical application of this method.
