The CREST reactive-burn model for explosives

Abstract: Abstract.CREST is an innovative reactive-burn model that has been developed at AWE for simulating shock initiation and detonation propagation behaviour in explosives. The model has a different basis from other reactive-burn models in that its reaction rate is independent of local flow variables behind the shock wave e.g. pressure and temperature. The foundation for CREST, based on a detailed analysis of data from particle-velocity gauge experiments, is that the reaction rate depends only on the local shock str… Show more

“…The equations governing the chemical reaction rate are also empirical and are typically calibrated with ignition timing and size-effect data [4,5]. The reaction rates are generally related to the shock strength via a dependence upon one of the thermodynamic variables, such as pressure [6], temperature [7] and entropy [8].…”

“…The leading shock at the front of a detonation wave compresses the material to volumes significantly smaller than the crushing volume. As such it is adequate to adapt the reference curves of the reactant EoS following the snow plow model 24,25 . The compressibility of the material at volumes larger than the crushing specific volume is taken to be infinity.…”
