Abstract
As a new type of braking method, the eddy current brake (ECB) is nowadays widely applied in life and military. The ECB can generate the strong resistance by the magnetic field, and obtaining the accurate magnetic induction distribution is essential in the ECB modeling. This paper proposes an analytical model of a cylinder ECB used in the artillery that operates under the intense impact load. This model takes the axial edge effects into consideration in both static and dynamic conditions. Firstly, this paper introduces the structure and working principle of this ECB. Secondly, a multilayer theory with virtual region is proposed to calculate the magnetic induction distribution considering the end effect. Thirdly, Finite Element Method (FEM) model is established to describe the spatial variation of the magnetic field in different conditions. Finally, the analytical model is compared with the FEM model to prove its validity and predict the working characteristic of the ECB under the intense impact load, the max recoil displacement and speed range both meet design and work requirements.
