| Abstract: | A novel method is
given to estimate the detonation velocity of mostly ideal and less ideal
composition explosives. This method is based on the utilization of theoretical
specific impulse of the explosive, which can be designated as a monopropellant,
and loading density. The simple empirical equation in calculating the
detonation velocity has the form: DCJ=1.453ISPρ0 + 1.98, where DCJ is the Chapman-Jouguet detonation velocity, ISP is the specific impulse
and ρ0 is
the initial density. Calculated detonation velocity by this procedure shows
good agreement with respect to measured detonation velocity. |
