Although shock tubes are widely considered as a quasi-ideal reactor for high-temperature studies, it involves a number of non-ideal effects such as a time-dependent pressure increase within the test section. This non-ideal pressure rise induces inaccuracy in the shock tube measurements. To overcome this issue, the driver insert strategy has proven to be successful. Nevertheless, the approaches presented in the literature to design such a driver insert either are not self-sufficient, i.e., they rely on external software, or lack flexibility. In this study, a simple, self-sufficient, fully analytical approach implemented in a MATLAB code has been developed to design a driver insert for the control of the rate of pressure rise in the test volume. The tip and end positions of the insert, as well as the effect of area change ratio on pressure behind reflected shock are obtained by the code.

In order to ensure their safe utilization, it is of primary importance to assess the risk of accidental combustion events such as detonation. Thus, focusing on ADN and its related propellant composed of ADN, monomethylamine nitrate, and urea with weight percentages of 40:40:20 (AMU442), we have studied the properties and steady structure of detonation propagating in gaseous mixtures formed by their thermal decomposition. The AMU442-based mixture exhibits higher von Neumann and Chapman–Jouguet temperatures and pressures than the ADN-based mixture. The study of their steady detonation structure reveals that the gaseous species resulting from the decomposition of AMU442 have higher detonability than the ones resulting from the decomposition of ADN alone. This is in contrast to a previous study about the safety of these propellants in their original (solid or liquid) phase, i.e., AMU442 has lower sensitivity/reactivity to incident impact than ADN. Thermochemical analyses performed for both mixtures show that the decomposition of <span>(textrm{HNO}_{3})</span> plays a dominant role for the energy consumption and initiation of the reaction by releasing both OH and <span>(textrm{NO}_{2})</span>. For the ADN-based mixture, the reactions involving <span>(textrm{HN}(textrm{NO}_{2})_{2})</span> and <span>(textrm{HNO}_{3})</span> are the most sensitive, whereas for the AMU442-based mixture, the most sensitive reactions involve <span>(textrm{CH}_{3}textrm{NH}_{2})</span>, <span>(textrm{CH}_{2}textrm{NH}_{2})</span>, and <span>(textrm{HNO}_{3})</span>. Reaction pathway diagrams emphasize the higher complexity of the chemical pathways for the AMU442-based mixture because of the presence of <span>([textrm{CH}_{3}textrm{NH}_{3}]^{+}[textrm{NO}_{3}]^{-})</span> and <span>(textrm{CH}_{4}textrm{N}_{2}textrm{O})</span> in the initial mixture.

The methodology, however, for capturing far-field blast waves in large-scale tests has remained largely unchanged for three decades, relying on large arrays of pressure transducers connected by hundreds of meters of cabling and requiring a considerable amount of time to set up. This paper evaluates the use of a modern low-cost microprocessor with high computational power to capture blast waves with sufficient fidelity to provide scientists and engineers with credible data. The system utilizes an ARM Cortex M7 processor as an experimental data acquisition (DAQ) system for measuring far-field blast waves in an open-air blast arena at sampling speeds of up to 1.8 Msps (megasamples per second). The experimental system’s performance was evaluated by comparing it to a traditional commercial system used for measuring blast waves. The comparison showed an average Spearman correlation coefficient <i>r</i> of 0.928 between the two systems, suggesting a low variance between the commercial and experimental DAQ systems. This suggests that, despite its simplicity, the experimental system is an effective and low-cost alternative for accurately measuring blast waves.\u0000</p>","PeriodicalId":775,"journal":{"name":"Shock Waves","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140316261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such additional considerations constitute an extension to the work achieved in the past, which modelled the caloric imperfections with a harmonic oscillator for vibrational energy and did not consider the effect of electronic energy. Additionally, the newly derived expressions provide physical insights into the limitations of experimentation for replicating flight conditions, which is demonstrated through providing solutions at different upstream temperatures. The results are compared with direct simulation Monte Carlo simulations for nitrogen and air, with the extent of the caloric imperfection of the gas showing excellent agreement. For low upstream temperatures, the extended relations are found to be in good agreement with the original normal shock wave expressions, but the results diverge for higher upstream temperatures that would be more representative of real flows. The results show that the new expressions depart from ideal gas theory for Mach numbers in excess of 4.9 at wind-tunnel conditions and for any Mach number above 3.0 at flight conditions.

In the present work, we investigate the effectiveness of micro-VGs in controlling the interactions of the boundary layer with a swept shock wave generated by a semi-infinite fin placed in a Mach 2 freestream generated in a wind tunnel with a rectangular cross section. The strength of the interaction is varied by changing the angle of attack of the fin in the range <span>(alpha = 3^circ )</span>–<span>(15^circ )</span>. Arrays of micro-VGs are placed upstream of the interaction zone in two different configurations: (I) along a line perpendicular to the freestream and (II) along a line inclined to the freestream following the conical topology of the interaction zone. A parametric analysis is done for the rectangular, ramp, and Anderson-type micro-VGs for three different heights. Unsteady and time-averaged pressure measurements are done using arrays of ports spanned radially across the interaction zone. Surface flow patterns are obtained using the oil-flow visualisation technique.

Detonation initiation was achieved in the case of the elliptical cavity, and based on the Mach number change of the leading shock wave, two propagation phases were verified: the deceleration and acceleration phases. The deceleration phase was driven merely by the gasdynamic effect, wherein the initial shock wave (ISW) expanded spherically, and the acceleration phase began when the ISW shifted to planar propagation. In the acceleration phase, although gradual acceleration was observed in rectangular cavities, rapid acceleration occurred in the elliptical cavity.
