INDEX Berthelot

It is common to compare the output of different explosives as their TNT equivalent , this being the weight of TNT that would produce the same explosive effect in similar circumstances. In the Berthelot method, the TNT equivalent is taken as the ratio of the power index of the explosive divided by the power index of TNT. The result is usually expressed as a percentage. [Pg.240]
