High-pressure combustion: Comparison of theoretical and actual results
Abstract
Following the observation of important variances (30 to 50%) between the theoretical and actual values obtained during a study of the combustion pressure of powders of approximately 1,500 MPa, the differences for several tests were compared. The composition of the combustion gases were analyzed. In addition, the deformation of a manometer explosive device was studied during the ignition stage. Data was obtained concerning the deformation resulting from the high pressure.
