Abstract
In an explosion test using a shock tube, the behavior of pressure waves can be reproduced with high reliability. However, the explosion in a shock tube occurs in a confined space. It is difficult to predict the behavior of pressure waves and its effect on various concrete specimens by using the research findings related to free-field explosions. Moreover, few studies have focused on explosive-driven shock tubes. In this study, the behavior of pressure waves in a shock tube was numerically analyzed using a finite-element analysis program. The explosive used to generate the pressure waves was an ammonium nitrate fuel oil (ANFO), which exhibits non-ideal explosion characteristics. The Jones–Wilkins–Lee (JWL) and ignition-and-growth (I&G) equations of state were used for blast-pressure calculation. The analysis results were affected by factors such as the release rate of explosive energy and the development of the pressure waves in the confined explosion. The blast behaviors, such as the low release rate of explosive energy and the resulting increase in the impulse, were analyzed using the ignition-and-growth equation. The impulse produced during the development of waves reflected by the block installed at the tube inlet exceeded that produced by the tube wall. Such behaviors that occurred at the beginning of a blast affected the process of wave propagation along the shock tube and the wave reflection due to the test specimen at the outlet of the shock tube. In this study, the blast behavior in the shock tube, which could be referenced for the analysis of blast overpressure and its effect on concrete specimens, was numerically analyzed. Further research on the structural behaviors of concrete specimens due to blast overpressure is needed.
