Attenuation law of planar shock waves propagating through dust-gas suspensions
Abstract
Olim et al. has proposed a general law for describing the instantaneous shock wave Mach number as it attenuates while propagating through dust-gas suspensions. Owing to the inadequacy of Olim's proposal, this study is aimed at finding the functional dependence of both the attenuation coefficient and Mach number on the initial shock wave Mach number, the diameter of the solid particles and the dust loading ratio.
