Model of Direct Initiation of Unconfined Detonations

摘要

An analytical model of the direct initiation of detonation waves with planar, cylindrical, and spherical symmetry is developed. This model shows that the energy requirements for the self-sustained detonation wave differ significantly for planar, cylindrical and spherical detonations. The new concept of minimum compensation energy was introduced and the technique of calculation of minimum initiation energy was developed. The results are verified by numerical simulation of the full governing equations and by comparison to experimental data. (Author)
