Abstract

The problem of strong point explosion in a nonuniform atmosphere is analytically solved. The earlier numerical solution of a similar task obtained by us shows that already at the initial stage of the process in a spherical gas layer in the area of an explosion, adjacent to the front of the shock wave, vortex structures are formed. Since for these small times the solution slightly differs from the exact solution by L.I. Sedov, by the perturbation method the theoretical research of a current in the internal area of an explosion, which allows the emergence of such vortex formations to be explained, is conducted.
