Use of a nozzle in particle acceleration by a flow of gas detonation products in tubes

Combustion, Explosion and Shock Waves Aims and scope

Abstract

Experimental results on the acceleration of inert spherical particles(30–170 µm in diameter) by gas detonation waves in tubes with nozzles are presented. It is shown that divergent nozzles increase the particle velocity by up to40%. Laser visualization was applied to obtain streak records of particle motion.
