Abstract

In order to achieve multi-objective optimization design of ballistics and improve the power of weapons, an optimization model for the internal ballistic simulation design of the propellant charge was established. Based on the requirements of artillery ballistic performance, the model took several influences into account, such as type, charge mass (ω) and web thickness (2e1). The objective function was composed of muzzle velocity (v0), maximum chamber pressure (pm), relative burnout point (ηk) equations. The computational program used recursive algorithm to calculate and select reasonable charge results by looping the internal ballistics and optimization design equation sets. 105 mm artillery and 122 mm artillery were selected as examples to optimize the charge design. The results show that compared with the existing charging scheme, the loading scheme optimized by the model can reduce the relative burnout point of 105 mm artillery by 0.21 in the case of the muzzle velocity, and the maximum chamber pressure have a little difference. The maximum chamber pressure of the 122 mm artillery reduces by 2.83% while the muzzle velocity increases by 1.13%.
