Interaction of a Shock Wave with a Spherical Gas–Liquid Cluster

Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Experimental studies were performed of the interaction of a plane shock wave with a spherical gas–liquid cluster (polyurethane foam ball saturated with a bubbly liquid) in a vertical shock tunnel filled with a liquid. The cluster was shown to generate a solitary pressure wave of large amplitude.
