Combustion, Explosion, and Shock Waves Aims and scope

Abstract

One method of studying materials or plasma under pressure pulse loading is axisymmetric compression using a convergent cylindrical detonation wave. Such waves are often generated by multipoint initiation and have a number of specific features that may affect the properties of the test objects. To solve specific problems, it is proposed to use a laboratory explosive system based on a converging cylindrical detonation wave with 12–48 initiation points. The TNT equivalent of the charge is less than 1 kg. The main method of research is visualization using a domestic high-speed Nanogeit camera with a nanosecond time resolution. The structure of the converging detonation wave is shown, and its velocity along the radius is determined. It is shown that for a charge of limited thickness, the curvature of the detonation wave front for various explosives depends only on the distance to the initiation point.
