Summary: | The Thomson coil actuator has an important application prospect in direct current high-speed switch due to its short respond time and fast operation speed. However, the large electromagnetic impact force during the opening process may bring the stress deformation of movable components and thus cause damage to the mechanism. Therefore, the dynamic stress and strain evaluation of the moving parts is very important for the design and optimization of direct current high-speed switch. In this article, a novel method of structure strength analysis based on the flexible body theory is established for direct current high-speed switch. The electromagnetic and buffer forces in the rapid opening process are calculated, and then the stress and strain distribution of the key components are obtained. Finally, the strain test circuit of the key components is built. By comparing the simulation and experimental results of dynamic strain, the validity of the established simulation model is verified.
