Abstract:

The soft recoil firing technology is a significant way to reduce the recoil force of a gun. A new multi-port recoil mechanism with a central port and variable-depth wall grooves is proposed to investigate the firing characteristics of a soft recoil gun. The flow distribution Bernoulli equation is established with CFD simulation to improve the model accuracy. On this basis, the interval uncertainty theory and genetic algorithm are applied to build the parameter identification model of the firing process. The typical parameters of the soft recoil gun are identified and obtained with the test data of the first round. The similarity rate between the simulation and test data can reach up to 92.78%. Moreover, the corresponding simulation results match the test data through the second and the third round. It is proved that the correct modeling and effective identification results provide theoretical guidance for the design of a soft recoil gun.
