METHOD FOR PROPELLING MISSILE AND ELECTROMAGNETIC RAMJET CANNON

摘要

PURPOSE: To provide a method for propelling a missile and an electromagnetic ramjet cannon in which an acceleration more than an electromagnetic acceleration can be attained by ejecting (a ram jet) reaction product generated through a chemical reaction between a cylindrical solid armature in particular and air. ;CONSTITUTION: A method for propelling a missile and an electromagnetic ramjet cannon 20 are constituted such that a cylindrical solid armature 6 and air are chemically reacted under utilization of a Joule heat generated at the cylindrical solid armature 6, the missile 4 is accelerated by injecting the generated reaction product.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1994,JPO&Japio
