In order to eliminate residual stresses in the welds of thin-sheet non-magnetic metals, the possibility of using magnetic pulse processing is considered. An electromagnetic inductor with a U-shaped magnetic circuit and two coils of solid conductor is considered. To create a unipolar current pulse in the inductor winding, a trinistor is used, which switches the electrical circuit from the capacitor, inductance and active resistance, and when the current in the inductor winding reaches zero, the circuit opens. The calculation of the transient process in an electric circuit with a dynamically changing inductance is performed by solving a circuit-field problem with given initial conditions. The calculation of the electromagnetic field is performed by the finite element method for a two-dimensional model of the inductor. The study of electromagnetic processes in the inductor and thin-sheet non-magnetic workpieces with the amplitude of the maximum current density of 1 kA/mm 2. The distribution of current density and magnetic force density on the workpiece surface and in time is given. It is proved that only for a small thickness of welded products (2 mm) can be achieved simultaneous power and current.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
