Numerical Analysis of the Workpiece Velocity in Electromagnetic Forming Process

Abstract:

The effect of the motional electromagnetic force in the electromagnetic forming circuit on the workpiece velocity is analyzed. The differential equations of unconsidering and considering the motional electromagnetic force in the electromagnetic forming circuit are solved numerically. The results without considering the motional electromagnetic force are unavailable because they violate the law of conservation of energy, while the results with considering the motional electromagnetic force can accurately reflect the electromagnetic forming process. Furthermore, it is found that the electrical energy transforms into the kinetic energy due to the motional electromagnetic force.
