| Abstract: | In this paper, detonation temperature of CNO and CHNO
explosives is evaluated by the base of atomic composition and heat of
formation. It is shown here how only atomic composition and condensed phase
heat of formation of CNO and CHNO explosives are sufficient for reliable
prediction of detonation temperature as compared to complicated computer codes.
New correlations are introduced so that they can easily be applied for
determining detonation temperature via specified different pathways of
decomposition of explosives. Calculated detonation temperatures by this
procedure for both pure and explosive formulations show good agreement with
respect to measured and the BKWS-EOS predictions of detonation temperatures. |
