Timing control of impulse self balancing latch opening of expansion wave gun

Abstract

Aiming at the problem of accurate latch opening control of expansion wave gun automatic gun, the mathematical model of accurate latch opening time is established, the travel curve of projectile and expansion wave, the velocity curve of projectile and expansion wave are studied, and the occurrence time of expansion wave and the time close to projectile are simulated and analyzed; The time-space evolution relationship between expansion wave velocity and local sound velocity, projectile velocity and gas velocity is simulated; The average pressure time curve and chamber resultant force curve of the two launch modes are compared and analyzed. After the projectile moves for 2.7ms, the chamber pressure and chamber resultant force of expansion wave launch are significantly reduced; The dynamic model of inertial latch opening is established; The changes of projectile initial velocity and recoil force under different latch opening times are studied. The test shows that the recoil force and recoil distance are greatly reduced when the projectile initial velocity decreases very weakly, which shows that the simulation calculation of latch opening time is accurate.
