During the launch process of electromagnetic railgun,the launcher is subj ected to the effects of complex loads,and the forces include the electromagnetic force,the friction and cutting heat of armature,the stress caused by high temperature gradient.The forces act on the pedestal of launcher system when the armature is shouted.Aiming at the recoil phenomenon for high-energy electromagnetic rail launch system,the model was established,and the stress-conditions of each component were calculated by ANSYS simulation software.The component and status of the recoil were obtained.Based on the energy dissipation of damping-liquid hole-shrinkage effect and the energy dissipation principle of friction,the calculation model of recoil force was established. According to the test requirements,new recoil mechanism was developed,and it can be applied in high-energy electromagnetic rail launch test system.
