Research on Energy Output Characteristics for Underwater Explosion of Explosives

The underwater explosion parameters(shock wave and bubble energy,shock wave pressure,factors(k and α) of shock wave pressure) of the different underwater weapons were measured,calculated,analyzed by the detonation parameters of different typical explosives.The experimental result is very consistent with the calculated one.The calculation formula of factor(α) for shock wave pressure was firstly found,providing the scientific basis for the underwater explosive formulation designs,warhead designs and performance evaluation of explosives.
