Abstract:
Results of theoretical and experimental studies of the interior ballistics of a powder-driven pulsed cannon are presented. The liquid flow in the facility is considered in quasistationary and nonstationary formulations. Conditions for the applicability of the quasistationary approximation are determined. The effect of the compressibility of the liquid on the performance of the pulsed cannon is evaluated. Calculation results are compared with experimental data obtained on a particular installation.
