Abstract:
In this paper, we compare the results of numerical calculations of the passage of a direct shock wave from pure gas into aerosol obtained with and without the effects of droplet breakup. The effect of the fragmentation of aerosol droplets on the profile and velocity of a compression wave propagating in a two-phase medium is determined. The droplet sizes at which the breakup of dispersed inclusions affects the process of the movement of a shock wave along aerosol are obtained.
