Abstract

Abstract Evacuators are key components of gun barrels, and their main function is to drain the gunpowder gas remaining in the gun bore from the muzzle by ejection. To design an efficient evacuator for the gun barrels, an optimization model with the mathematical expressions describing the working process of the evacuator was established. The four structural parameters that affect the efficiency of the evacuator, including the volume of the gas storage cylinder chamber, the distance of the nozzle from the muzzle end face, the cross-sectional area of the nozzles and the cross-sectional area of the valves, were optimized. The effective working time and reliability indicator of the optimized evacuator were improved. This work describes a framework for improving the design of highly efficient evacuators on gun barrels.
