Slide 1

Coil Gun
J.A.M.M. (Jason, Abe, Mark, and
Max)

What is a coil gun?






A projectile
accelerator
Electromagnet coils
form a linear motor
There may be a
series of coils,
switched on an off in
sequence

Coil Gun v. Rail gun




There is a distinction,
duh
Unlike coil guns, rail
guns pass current
through the projectile
by way of sliding
contacts

Construction









Solenoid
Ferromagnetic object (projectile)
A large current
Current creates a magnetic field, which
pulls the projectile to the center of the coil
Single stage
Multi Stage

The Importance of the Coil Gun







It is important for our project
Electromagnetic aircraft catapults
Tomahawk missiles
Tank active defense system
Cool beans
