These are the basic equations of the hydrodynamic theory of detonation. If p2 and v2 can be determined, they enable the remaining features of the detonation wave to be calculated. Unfortunately p2 and v, relate to conditions in the detonation wave and not to the lower pressure conditions which the explosion products would reach at equilibrium in, for example, a closed vessel. Therefore, further calculations are needed to determine p2 and v2. [Pg.18]

The major difficulty in applying this hydrodynamic theory of detonation to practical cases lies in the calculation of E2, the specific internal energy of the explosion products immediately behind the detonation front, without which the Rankine-Hugoniot curve cannot be drawn. The calculations require a knowledge of the equation of state of the detonation products and also a full knowledge of the chemical equilibria involved, both at very high temperatures and pressures. The first equation of state used was the Abel equation... [Pg.19]

The theory of detonation has also been extended to study the process of initiation of reaction by the commonest means used in practice, namely, by the shock wave arising from another high explosive. Campbell, Davis and Travis have studied the initiation by plane shock waves of homogeneous explosives, particularly nitromethane. Initiation occurs at the boundary of the explosive after an induction period which is of the order of a microsecond and which depends markedly on initial temperature. During the induction period the shock wave has proceeded through the explosive and compressed it. The detonation initially in compressed explosive has a velocity some 10% above normal, but the detonation soon overtakes the... [Pg.25]

Requirements 1 and 3 follow immediately from the considerations of the theory of detonation when it is remembered that the purpose of the charge is to obtain maximum effect, both from the shock wave of the explosive and also from the destructive effect of expansion of the explosion products. Requirements 1 and 2 follow from the consideration that any reduction in size and weight of the warhead of a missile, or in a shell, immediately makes it possible to increase the range and therefore the usefulness of the weapon. Requirement 5 relates not only to safety, but also the desirability, particularly for armour-piercing ammunition, for the time of detonation to be determined solely by the functioning of an appropriate fuze.
