Abstract
Particle flows formed from shaped charges with a combined steel liner consisting of a hemisphere and a cylinder with a hemispherical part of degressive thickness (decreasing from top to bottom) were investigated by flash radiography. It has been found experimentally that the change from a constant to a degressive thickness of the hemispherical part increases the velocity of the head part of the liner jet formed during its compression, which is subsequently separated upon collapse of the cylindrical part. The maximum particle velocity obtained as a result of separation in the experiments was 8.6 km/s.
