In this paper the electrical to mechanical energy conversion efficiency of a double-sided Thomson coil actuator is investigated by means of finite element simulations. It is shown that performance gains compared with the conventional Thomson coil actuator are possible and in line with theoretical analysis. Based on a sensitivity assessment, fine tuning of a double-sided Thomson coil actuator has been...
This paper assesses the electrical to mechanical energy conversion efficiency of a Thomson coil, ultra-fast, linear actuator. Using finite element software a sensitivity analysis of the actuator was conducted in order to understand how different design parameters affect actuator performance. By using an iterative approach a high performance design has been realized. Through FE simulation results it...
