EFFECT OF RADIAL DISTANCE FROM HIGH EXPLOSIVE ON BREAKUP CHARACTERISTICS OF SOLID MATERIALS IN SPHERICAL BOMBLETS

摘要

This special report describes an experimental method for determining the effect of radial distance from an explosive charge on the net size reduction of solid particles in a spherical CW bomb let. Data showing the effect of position in bomb let, size of bomb let, agent-to-explosive mass ratio and shock amplification on final breakup are presented.nMethods for chemical analysis of both the inorganic and organic materials used as agents (stimulants) and tracers are presented.
