In July 1981, a joint project between the Center for Electromechanics and the General Dynamics Corporation was undertaken to accelerate the first metallic penetrator-type projectile by means of an electromagnetic railgun. A preliminary design effort at CEM-UT indicated the feasibility of driving a railgun with the CEM-UT 10-MJ homopolar generator charging an energy storage inductor. Several system options were presented to General Dynamics, and a liquid nitrogen-cooled aluminum Brooks coil inductor charged with the 10-MJ HPG was selected. This paper describes the design, fabrication, and testing of the inductor. A scale model of the system was constructed during the design phase, and the circuit parameters were measured. These parameters were scaled up to the full-size system and are compared to actual circuit parameters measured while testing the coil.
