摘要
本文报道了ISL最近启动的快速火力轨道炮(RAFIRA)项目的进展情况。该项目的目标是研究ISL开发的电枢技术的多射能力。该技术的特点是使用多个金属纤维电刷电枢。该项目主要基于EMA3轨道炮在ISL(初速v0小于2 km/s,单次发射能量Eprim < 1MJ, 1 = 3 m,常规口径= 15 mm x 30 mm)下获得的结果。这些结果的特点是在高达2 km/s的范围内,在摩擦、轨道侵蚀和接触过渡方面具有良好的接触性能。本文总结了单发模式下的主要结果,并介绍了多发模式下的初步实验。随后讨论了多弹系统的装填和切换技术,最后提出了中口径系统RAFIRA的具体设计考虑。
The ISL Rapid Fire Railgun Project RAFIRA Part I: Technical Aspects and Design Considerations
This paper reports on the progress made within the rapid fire railgun (RAFIRA) project recently launched at the ISL. The goal of this project is to investigate the multishot capacity of the armature technology developed at ISL. This technology is characterized by the use of multiple metal fiber brush armatures. The project bases on results mainly obtained with the railgun EMA3 at ISL (muzzle velocity v0 les 2 km/s, applied energy per shot Eprim < 1MJ, 1 = 3 m, regular cal. = 15 mm x 30 mm). These results are characterized by good contact performance with respect to friction, rail erosion and contact transition in the range up to 2 km/s. The paper summarizes the main results in single shot mode and introduces preliminary experiments with respect to multishot applications. Subsequently technical aspects about loading and switching technologies for a multishot system are discussed and last but not least concrete design considerations for the medium caliber system RAFIRA are presented.
