The “Muzzle Flame” (arc) is generated when the armature exits muzzle instantaneously, which seriously affects the flight attitude, stability of the projectile, and the muzzle duration of electromagnetic rail launchers. An effective arc suppression device is critical to the overall boost of system performance and its application. This project will be carried out by comprehensively applying theoretical analysis, numerical simulation and experimental verification methods, and its research content mainly includes: Analysis of the influence mechanism of multi-coupled parametric variables of various flow fields, such as the baric field, electromagnetic field and arc electric field density distribution, with regard to hypersonic open-circuit arc characteristics at the moment when the armature exits muzzle. Subsequently, by applying the cognitive science theory comprehensively, an optimization design method and a comprehensive evaluation criterion are presented for adaptive open-circuit arc extinction structures based on the construction of arc physical model under extremely complex flow fields. Furthermore, a robust controller will be developed based on mixed sensitivity theory to promote the effect of arc extinction structures productively towards suppressing the muzzle arc. In addition, a novel prototype of an adaptive arc extinction structure will be developed to verify the proposed theories and methods. The research results of this project can provide a theoretical guidance for innovation design and optimization of a novel muzzle arc extinction structure. Meanwhile, it has important scientific value and significance for expanding the theoretical research of arc discharge and promoting the development and application of electromagnetic emission technology.
