For a fine emulsion explosive, the dependence of the detonation velocity D on the cylindrical-charge diameter d and plane-layer thickness Δ is determined. It is shown that the emulsion explosive considered has low values of the critical diameter (d cr ≈ 5 mm) and thickness (Δ cr ≈ 2 mm). According to curved front theory, the relation D(d) ≈ D(2Δ) is valid and the ratio d cr /Δ cr is 2.4-2.5.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
