    The document summarizes an upcoming presentation on Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch Systems (EMALS). EMALS uses electromagnetic propulsion instead of steam to launch aircraft from aircraft carriers. It can accelerate planes faster than steam catapults, while providing smoother launches that are better for pilots and aircraft. The presentation will cover EMALS' design, technology, impacts on ship operations, and compatibility with current and future aircraft carriers.

    A SEMINAR ON

    EMALS ELECTROMAGNETIC AIRCRAFT LAUNCH


    SYSTEMS
    ABSTRACT
    Catapults serve as a means to race an aircraft down a short runway in aircraft carriers.
    Existing technology makes use of the steam version the steam catapults. Current steam
    catapults use about 615 kg/ 1,350 pounds of steam for each aircraft launch, which is usually
    delivered by piping it from the nuclear reactor. Now add to that the required hydraulics and oils,
    the water required to brake the catapult, and associated pumps, motors, and control systems. The
    result is a large, heavy, maintenance-intensive system that operates without feedback control; and
    its sudden shocks shorten airframe lifespans for carrier-based aircraft. EMALS can accelerate a
    heavy warplane to 180 knots (333kph)about 30 (55.5kmph) knots faster than a steam catapult.
    As the acceleration can be finely adjusted every millisecond, it produces smoother launches,
    which are better for pilots and aircraft. This paper presents the U.S. Navy's Electromagnetic
    Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) being developed in partnership with Kaman Electromagnetics
    (Hudson, MA). It addresses the EMALS's present design and the associated technology involved,
    as well as the ship and operational impacts, advantages, disadvantages, and compatibility issues
    for today's and tomorrow's carriers.
