Effect of the elemental composition of explosives on the parameters and composition of explosion products

  • Published:
Combustion, Explosion and Shock Waves Aims and scope

Abstract

The effect of the elemental composition of explosives on the parameters and composition of the explosion products is studied numerically. It is shown, in particular, that choosing the ratios of individual explosives and an admixture (water), one can reach the optimum gas evolution of a mixed explosive.
