Temperature Field and Thermal Stress Analysis of Large Caliber Gun Barrel

Abstract:

In order to analyze the temperature fields, temperature grads, thermal stress and thermal strain of large caliber machine gun barrel during firing, an analysis model was established for large caliber machine gun. The finite element analyze model are founded and the boundary condition of the model are loaded. The results indicated the temperature, temperature grads, thermal stress and thermal strain of the large caliber gun tube during continuous shots. The effect of thermal pulse loading on thermal stress, thermal strain is very obviously. So, thermal pulse loading is the primary origin of thermal stress, thermal strain of the large caliber machine gun barrel. At the same time, the thermal pulse loading is one of the important factors affecting the life of the gun tube.
