The aim of this study was to design operation methods for three-stage coil gun experiments and to fabricate and compare prototypes of control systems using these methods. Two methods are proposed: (1) recognizing the position of a projectile using a photointerrupter and (2) operating a control circuit to supply power to a silicon-controlled rectifier when the projectile reaches an intended position by registering the delay time between coil gun operations. The distance between the projectile and the solenoid coil during a coil gun operation is a key design factor. For the multi-stage coil gun manufactured in this study, the discharge time must be determined according to the position of the projectile, which moves at high velocity. Therefore, the selected method should have minimal operation error and allow the circuit to be easily used according to the coil gun stage and configuration. This study compares the prototypes of coil gun discharge circuits that were fabricated based on the proposed methods by applying them to three-stage coil guns and measuring their velocities. The findings of this study could be used to suggest design methods for experimental models for coil guns with fewer stages according to the final velocity and coil gun stage to be manufactured. |
