Effect of coil parameters on rivet deformation in low voltage electromagnetic riveting

摘要

Electromagnetic riveting is a kind of energy conversion technology and forming coil is the key component of energy conversion. Coil parameters include the turns and wire cross section size. The effects of coil parameters on discharge current, riveting force, rivet deformation degree and energy conversion rate were investigated by experimental method in low voltage electromagnetic riveting. The results show that with the coil turns increasing, coil inductance increases, discharge current amplitude decreases, cycle increases, rivet deformation degree increases and the energy conversion rate improves when the coil wire cross section size is the same. And with the coil wire width increasing, the coil resistance decreases, discharge current amplitude increases, rivet deformation degree increases and the energy conversion rate improves when the coil turns is same. By rational design of coil turns and wire section size, low voltage electromagnetic riveting is an effective way to realize deformation of strain rate sensitive material TA1 rivets.
