Abstrakt: In this paper, the sensing principle of a B-dot probe to measure the armature position was analyzed. The output waveforms of the probe for two different orientations were given after mathematical deduction. An electromagnetic launching experiment was conducted, and the result shows that the output waveforms of the probes can present the velocity trend of the armature. After data fitting, the velocity of the armature moving in the bore was given, and combined with the waveform of the muzzle voltage, the muzzle velocity was obtained, which matched the measurement result by a high speed camera well.
