Abstract
This paper concerns a new method for projectile disposal by emptying the explosives in projectiles with electromagnetic heating. It explains the basic principles of the emptying technology via electromagnetic heating. A multiphysical analysis model coupled with an electromagnetic, thermal, fluid and phase transition model is established, and the explosive melting simulation is conducted based on this model. The dynamic phase transition process of the explosive from solid to liquid is simulated, and the electric field, magnetic field and thermal field distribution characteristics during the process are analyzed. Furthermore, the effect of excitation current characteristics on the phase transition of the explosive is given, which shows that the explosive melting process is controllable by setting the excitation current amplitude or frequency. This paper provides a new method for the disposal of end-of-life projectiles, which is more controllable, safe and environmentally friendly.
