The results show that pressure of the explosion and detonation velocity decrease in the same section areas after bending. In bending conditions, detonation wave was similar to small angle comer diffraction. So the detonation velocity was lower than normal velocity.展开更多

It also investigates the spatial distribution characteristics of the resulting shock wave loads. Based on dimensional analysis theory, a theoretical analysis of the shock wave overpressure distribution in free air fields is conducted. Utilizing the derived dimensionless function relationships, the hydrocode AUTODYN is employed to investigate the effects of charge structure parameters and explosive combinations on the internal overdriven detonation phenomena and the distribution of shock wave loads. It is found that the overdriven detonation phenomenon in the inner layer of composite charges increases the strength of the axial detonation wave,thereby enhancing the intensity of the primary end wave formed upon refraction into the air, which affects the distribution characteristics of the shock wave overpressure. Research has shown that increasing the thickness ratio and detonation velocity ratio of composite charges is beneficial for exacerbating the phenomenon of overdriven detonation, improving the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure. This gain effect gradually weakens with the propagation of shock waves. When overdriven detonation occurs inside the composite charge, the detonation pressure first increases and then decreases. The Mach reflection pressure of the composite charge with a larger aspect ratio is attenuated to a greater extent. In addition, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the shock wave energy gradually flows from the axial direction to the radial direction. Therefore, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure gradually decrease.展开更多

The e...In this study, the three-dimensional non-premixed two-phase kerosene/air rotating detonation engines with different isolator configurations and throat area ratios are simulated by the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The effects of the divergence, straight, and convergence isolators on the rotating detonation wave dynamics and the upstream oblique shock wave propagation mechanism are analyzed. The differences in the rotating detonation wave behaviors between ground and flight operations are clarified.The results indicate that the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave depend on the isolator configurations and operation conditions. With a divergence isolator, the airflow is accelerated throughout the isolator and divergence section, leading to a maximum Mach number(~1.8) before the normal shock. The total pressure loss reaches the largest, and the detonation pressure drops. The upstream oblique shock wave can be suppressed within the divergence section with the divergence isolator.However, for the straight and convergence isolators, the airflow in the isolator with a larger ψ_(1)(0.3 and0.4) can suffer from the disturbance of the upstream oblique shock wave. The critical incident angle is around 39° at ground operation conditions. The upstream oblique shock wave tends to be suppressed when the engine operates under flight operation conditions. The critical pressure ratio β_(cr0) is found to be able to help in distinguishing the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave. Slightly below or above the β_(cr0) can obtain different marginal propagation results. The high-speed airflow in the divergence section affects the fuel droplet penetration distance, which deteriorates the reactant mixing and the detonation area. Significant detonation velocity deficits are observed and the maximum velocity deficit reaches 26%. The results indicate the engine channel design should adopt different isolator configurations based on the purpose of total pressure loss or disturbance suppression. This study can provide useful guidance for the channel design of a more complete two-phase rotating detonation engine.展开更多

This study systematically investigates the effects of F_(2)concentration and inlet mass flow rate on rotating detonation wave(RDW) propagation using two-dimensional numerical simulations, providing the first comprehensive analysis of F_(2)as an oxidizing additive in regulating detonation performance, propagation stability, and heat release dynamics in RDEs. The results indicate that when F_(2)concentration is below 1%, the flow field primarily exhibits a stable single-wave propagation mode. As F_(2)concentration increases, RDW performance initially improves but then deteriorates, reaching its optimal state at 0.8% F_(2). When F_(2)concentration exceeds 1%, the coupled effects of F_(2)concentration and inlet mass flow rate induce a transition from single-wave to multi-wave propagation modes. While a higher inlet mass flow rate promotes increased wave numbers, it also intensifies wave-wave interactions. With further increases in F_(2)concentration, the enhanced heat release leads to intensified local deflagration, frequent hotspot formation, and wave collisions, ultimately degrading RDW performance and destabilizing the multi-wave flow field. Moreover, excessive HF formation is identified as a critical driver of enhanced deflagration, hotspot generation,and the disruption of multi-wave stability. These findings provide a theoretical foundation for integrating F_(2)additives into H_(2)/Air-based RDE systems.展开更多

文摘Numerical simulations and theoretical models are developed in this paper for the Detonation-Wave/Boundary-Layer Interactions(DWBLIs)under reflections.Transient flow fields demonstrate the highly non-stationarity of the DWBLIs when Mach Reflection(MR)occur,and subsequent analyses show that the subsonic region introduced by the boundary layer exacerbates the instability.Further quantitative analyses show that viscosity has little effect on propulsive performance and the separation wave can be considered as an oblique detonation wave.Influence parameters to DWBLIs such as combustion chamber height,incoming Mach number,equivalence ratio,and inlet channel length are categorized and studied.Besides simulations,theoretical analytical modeling is established for Regular Reflection(RR)and MR of DWBLIs.Multiple formulas for the separation zone length are obtained according to the mass conservation under different transformation type between inviscid and viscid reflections.Comparison with the numerical simulations verifies the validity of the model and it can be further generalized to the curved DWBLIs.The developed model makes the theoretical solution process of DWBLIs possible and provides the key foundation for further analysis and solution.

文摘This paper presents the results of free-jet experiments conducted on an internal injection oblique detonation engine in a large-scale hypersonic shock tunnel.To overcome the challenges of non-uniform mixing and the failure of oblique detonation wave initiation when using liquid fuel,a combined strut-wall injection configuration was employed.Initiation was achieved by introducing a bump structure on the wedge.The results demonstrate that this strategy for mixing and initiation effectively establishes the oblique detonation wave combustion flow field.To further investigate the fuel mixing and initiation processes in the oblique detonation engine,three-dimensional numerical simulations consistent with the experimental conditions were carried out using the ReynoldsAveraged Navier-Stokes(RANS)method.The simulation results reveal that the high-speed gas flow generates shock waves as it passes through the central strut and transverse fuel jets.These shock waves are reflected by the wall,forming a series of shocks in the mixing section.The kerosene injected from the strut injectors does not react during the mixing phase.However,due to the influence of the high-temperature boundary layer,the kerosene injected through the wall undergoes precombustion.The separation zone upstream of the bump generates separation shock waves,allowing the multi-wave point to stabilize at a short distance from the leading edge of the wedge.
文摘Investigating the detonation reaction zone structures of high explosives is significant for understanding detonation reaction mechanism.This study employed an integrated approach combining machine learning prediction,theoretical calculation,and experimental characterization to determine the detonation reaction zone width of CL-20-based aluminized explosive.In this study,the detonation reaction zone refers to the reaction zone between the von Neumann(VN)peak and sonic point,which usually means the so-called detonation driving zone(DDZ).For the machine learning prediction,an ensemble model integrating Random Forest and Support Vector Regression was developed to predict the reaction zone width using a dataset of 19 publicly available samples.For the theoretical calculation,the Wood-Kirkwood(W-K)detonation theory model was utilized to implement numerical calculation of the reaction zone structures,incorporating chemical reaction kinetics to describe the detonation reaction progress.In experimental characterization,the Photon Doppler Velocimetry(PDV)was applied with LiF as the optical window to measure the particle velocity profile of detonation products and derive the reaction zone width.The results indicate that the reaction zone width values are 0.25 mm,0.28 mm,and 0.26 mm obtained from machine learning prediction,theoretical calculation,and experimental characterization,respectively.The corresponding velocities at the Chapman-Jouguet(CJ)point are 1,938 m/s,2,047 m/s,and 1,982 m/s,respectively.The maximum relative deviation in reaction zone width among three methods is approximately 7.7%,while that for CJ particle velocity is approximately 3.3%.These results from all three methods agree well within engineering error.This validates the effectiveness of integrating machine learning prediction,theoretical calculation and advanced experimental techniques for studying the detonation reaction zone structures of high explosives.This research provides insights into the detonation reaction mechanism and reaction zone characteristics of CL-20-based aluminized explosive.

文摘Excellent detonation performances and low sensitivity are prerequisites for the deployment of energetic materials.Exploring the underlying factors that affect impact sensitivity and detonation performances as well as exploring how to obtain materials with desired properties remains a long-term challenge.Machine learning with its ability to solve complex tasks and perform robust data processing can reveal the relationship between performance and descriptive indicators,potentially accelerating the development process of energetic materials.In this background,impact sensitivity,detonation performances,and 28 physicochemical parameters for 222 energetic materials from density functional theory calculations and published literature were sorted out.Four machine learning algorithms were employed to predict various properties of energetic materials,including impact sensitivity,detonation velocity,detonation pressure,and Gurney energy.Analysis of Pearson coefficients and feature importance showed that the heat of explosion,oxygen balance,decomposition products,and HOMO energy levels have a strong correlation with the impact sensitivity of energetic materials.Oxygen balance,decomposition products,and density have a strong correlation with detonation performances.Utilizing impact sensitivity of 2,3,4-trinitrotoluene and the detonation performances of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene-1,3,5-triamine as the benchmark,the analysis of feature importance rankings and statistical data revealed the optimal range of key features balancing impact sensitivity and detonation performances:oxygen balance values should be between-40%and-30%,density should range from 1.66 to 1.72 g/cm^(3),HOMO energy levels should be between-6.34 and-6.31 eV,and lipophilicity should be between-1.0 and 0.1,4.49 and 5.59.These findings not only offer important insights into the impact sensitivity and detonation performances of energetic materials,but also provide a theoretical guidance paradigm for the design and development of new energetic materials with optimal detonation performances and reduced sensitivity.

文摘The selection of an appropriate basic detonation wave flow field is crucial for improving the performance and geometric design of standing detonation vehicles.This paper employs a detailed chemical reaction model and solves the unsteady axisymmetric Euler equation to study the characteristics of the Axisymmetric Inward Turning Curved Detonation Wave(AIT-CDW)flow field and the parameters affecting the stability of the wave system structure of AIT-CDW flow field.The numerical results demonstrate a radial compression effect in the AIT-CDW flow field.This effect causes the detonation wave to have a shorter initiation length than oblique detonation wave flow field and the detonation wave angle to gradually increase with the flow direction postdetonation.The AIT-CDW flow field is confined space,making it prone to normal detonation waves when the detonation wave reflects from the wall.This phenomenon is detrimental to the stability of the wave system structure in the flow field.It has been observed that increasing the center body radius and decreasing the fuel equivalent ratio can effectively reduce the height of the normal detonation wave or even eliminate it.Additionally,a well-designed generatrix shape of the center body can enhance airflow,reduce choked flow,and promote the stability of the wave structure in the flow field.

文摘Rectangular explosive charges are usually used in military or civilian explosive transportation and storage.The effects of shape parameters and detonation positions on the peak overpressure and maximum impulse of blasts lack comprehensive investigation,which is significant for the design of blast-resistant structures.In this paper,the side-length ratio of the rectangle,orientation,and detonation position of the charge are chosen as controlling parameters to investigate their influence on blast loads in the scaled distances of the gauges ranging from 0.63 to 10.54 m/kg^(1/3) with well validated 3D numerical simulations.The results show that there is a large difference in the near-field spatial distribution of the blast load of the rectangular charge;if the blast load of the rectangular charge is simply evaluated with the spherical charge,the maximum peak overpressure(maximum impulse)will be underestimated by a factor of 7.46(4.84).This must be taken seriously by blast-resistant structure designers.With the increase in the scaled distance,when the critical scaled distance is greater than 6.32(7.38)m/kg^(1/3),the influence of the charge shape on the maximum peak overpressure(maximum impulse)of the spatial blast load can be ignored.In general,the impact of detonation of the charge at the end on the maximum peak overpressure is greater compared with central detonation,but for the impact of the maximum impulse,it is necessary to pay attention to the side-length ratio of the rectangular charge and the specific detonation position on the end face.Furthermore,the structural response of steel plates placed at different azimuths under the blast load of a rectangular charge is preliminarily analyzed,and the results show that the deformation and energy of the plates are consistent with the distribution of the blast load.These analysis results provide a reference for the explosion protection design in near-field air explosions.

文摘In rock drilling and blasting,the misfire of electronic detonators will not only affect the rock fragmentation result but also bring serious potential safety hazards to engineering construction.An accurate and comprehensive understanding of the failure mechanisms of electronic detonators subjected to impact loading is of great significance to the reliability design and field safety use of electronic detonators.The spatial distribution characteristics and failure modes of misfired electronic detonators under different application scenarios are statistically analysed.The results show that under high impact loads,electronic detonators will experience failure phenomena such as rupture of the fuse head,fracture of the bridge wire,falling off of the solder joint,chip module damage and insufficient initiation energy after deformation.The lack of impact resistance is the primary cause of misfire of electronic detonators.Combined with the underwater impact resistance test and the impact load test in the adjacent blasthole on site,the formulas of the impact failure probability of the electronic detonator under different stress‒strength distribution curves are deduced.The test and evaluation method of the impact resistance of electronic detonators based on stress‒strength interference theory is proposed.Furthermore,the impact failure model of electronic detonators considering the strength degradation effect under repeated random loads is established.On this basis,the failure mechanism of electronic detonators under different application environments,such as open-pit blasting and underground blasting,is revealed,which provides scientific theory and methods for the reliability analysis,design and type selection of electronic detonators in rock drilling and blasting.

文摘To explore the design criteria for composite charges and reveal the intrinsic relationship between the detonation wave propagation in composite charges and the overall energy distribution of shock waves,this study analyzes the propagation and interaction processes of detonation waves in composite charges with different structural dimensions and explosive combinations. It also investigates the spatial distribution characteristics of the resulting shock wave loads. Based on dimensional analysis theory, a theoretical analysis of the shock wave overpressure distribution in free air fields is conducted. Utilizing the derived dimensionless function relationships, the hydrocode AUTODYN is employed to investigate the effects of charge structure parameters and explosive combinations on the internal overdriven detonation phenomena and the distribution of shock wave loads. It is found that the overdriven detonation phenomenon in the inner layer of composite charges increases the strength of the axial detonation wave,thereby enhancing the intensity of the primary end wave formed upon refraction into the air, which affects the distribution characteristics of the shock wave overpressure. Research has shown that increasing the thickness ratio and detonation velocity ratio of composite charges is beneficial for exacerbating the phenomenon of overdriven detonation, improving the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure. This gain effect gradually weakens with the propagation of shock waves. When overdriven detonation occurs inside the composite charge, the detonation pressure first increases and then decreases. The Mach reflection pressure of the composite charge with a larger aspect ratio is attenuated to a greater extent. In addition, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the shock wave energy gradually flows from the axial direction to the radial direction. Therefore, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure gradually decrease.

文摘Research on detonation has traditionally focused on forward solutions,with limited attention to inverse design methods,which has significantly hindered the development of detonation engines.In this paper,the Method of characteristics for Curved-Detonation(MOCD)is proposed to enable the inverse design of detonation waves.MOCD is based on the Method of Curved-shock Characteristics(MOCC)and integrates higher-order aerodynamic parameters from Curved Detonation Equations(CDE),allowing the calculation of the wedge angle given specific wave angle.The effectiveness of MOCD is validated using both oblique and curved detonation waves with single-step and detailed chemical reactions.Various applications demonstrate the ability to meet the inverse design requirements of detonation engines.For example,inverse design for given wave angles can optimize engine thrust and prevent Mach reflections.Additionally,inverse design schemes tailored to incoming flow conditions,such as varying Mach numbers and equivalence ratios,enhance the feasibility of detonation engines.Applying the method to given post-wave aerodynamic parameters enables more precise engine design,which is crucial for improving propulsion performance and effective thermal protection.In summary,the advantages of MOCD include not only performing a fast solution of the detonation flow field,but also allowing the inverse design of the detonation wave.

文摘This study investigates the paradoxical detonation behavior of TKX-50,a nitrogen-rich energetic material,exhibiting higher detonation velocities but lower metal acceleration ability compared to HMX.Through experimental measurements and theoretical calculations,we propose a novel three-factor competition mechanism to explain this phenomenon.TKX-50-based PBX formulations achieved detonation velocities up to 9100 m/s,surpassing HMX-based counterparts.However,cylinder expansion tests revealed a 15%reduction in metal acceleration ability.Thermochemical measurements showed lower detonation heat for TKX-50(4900 J/g)versus HMX(5645 J/g).Our mechanism involves:(1)compositional effects prevailing at high pressures;(2)Energy release becoming essential as pressure drops;(3)Pressure-dependent product composition evolution functioning at low pressure.VLW code calculations unveiled a"crossover"in Hugoniot curves,lending support to this mechanism.This study furnishes a new framework for comprehending the performance of nitrogen-rich energetic materials,with significant implications for the design and optimization of future high-energy density materials.

文摘The distribution of exothermic reaction rates is jointly influenced by reduced activation energy and reaction rate constant.This study focuses on the effect of distribution of exothermic reaction rates on detonation wave propagation instability,specifically under conditions where the length of the induction and exothermic reaction remains constant.It is found that the distribution variation of exothermic reaction rates significantly influences the detonation wave propagation characteristics.Specifically,under conditions of high activation energy,the exothermic reaction rate profile exhibits a smoother distribution but becomes more prone to perturbations.This heightened sensitivity,coupled with the augmented overdriven degree associated with pulsating detonation and cellular detonation wave propagation,further exacerbates the instability characteristics of detonation waves.Especially to the two-dimensional detonation waves with high activation energies,the distribution of exothermic reaction rates becomes more sensitive to these displacements,reinforcing the transverse shock wave and leading to a transformation of the wavefront and cellular structure towards more unstable configurations.This research delves into the intricate interactions between the distribution of exothermic reaction rates and detonation wave instability,aiming to provide an explanatory of detonation instability.
文摘In order to find the optimal anions and cations for designing energetic salts with excellent detonation properties,the properties of 140 salts formed from the anions(A–G)of 3,3′-dinitroamino-4,4′-azoxyfurazan(DAAF)derivatives substituted with the—NH_(2),—N_(3) or—NO_(2) group and the cations(1–20)of guanidine,triazole,or tetrazole derivatives were investigated by means of density-functional theory.The predicted densities,heats of formation,detonation velocities(D),and detonation pressures(P)of 140 salts were 11.72 to 2.06 g·cm ^(−3),570.2 to 2333.4 kJ·mol^(−1),8.29 to 10.02 km·s^(−1) and 30.16 to 47.57 GPa,respectively.Most of the salts had better detonation properties than the widely used hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine(RDX).Salts containing—NO_(2) group anions(C and F)have better detonation properties(D is 8.88 to 10.02 km·s^(−1) and P is 35.75 to 47.75 GPa)than other salts.Salts containing the cations NH_(4)^(+)(1),NH_(3)OH^(+)(2)and CH_(2)N_(4)NO_(2)^(+)(20)had good detonation properties(D is 9.38 to 10.02 km·s^(−1) and P is 40.72 to 47.75 GPa).Depending on the detonation properties,anions(C and F)and cations(1,2 and 20)are the recommended ions for the generation of energetic salts.

文摘This study investigates the mixing enhancement mechanism and propagation characteristics of the detonation flow field of a Rotating Detonation Engine(RDE).Three-dimensional numerical simulations of a non-premixed ramjet-based RDE fueled by gaseous ethylene are performed in OpenFOAM for configurations with 15,30,45,and 60 orifices at a flight Mach number of 4.The results show that fuels with a stripped distribution are primarily mixed via tangential diffusion in the cold flow field.The configuration with more orifices has a better upstream mixing efficiency,whereas its downstream mixing efficiency,which is limited by the depth of penetration,is difficult to improve further.Backward Pressure Perturbations(BPPs)opposite to the propagation direction of Rotating Detonation Waves(RDWs)are produced by the reflection of the upstream oblique shock wave with the incoming stream and the hot release of local reactions after RDWs,which significantly affects the propagation mode and mixing.The RDWs propagate in the stable single-wave mode in configurations with 45 or 60 orifices and in the multi-wave mode in configurations with 30 orifices,whereas they fail in configurations with 15 orifices.Compared with that in the cold flow field,deceleration of the main flow,pressurization,and tangential velocity perturbation caused by the RDW substantially enhance the mixing efficiency.Moreover,the tangential velocity perturbations of upstream oblique shock waves and BPPs reduce the unevenness of the fuel distribution for the next cycle.This study reveals the mixing enhancement mechanism of RDWs and can contribute to the design of the injection scheme of the RDE.

文摘In this study, the three-dimensional non-premixed two-phase kerosene/air rotating detonation engines with different isolator configurations and throat area ratios are simulated by the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The effects of the divergence, straight, and convergence isolators on the rotating detonation wave dynamics and the upstream oblique shock wave propagation mechanism are analyzed. The differences in the rotating detonation wave behaviors between ground and flight operations are clarified.The results indicate that the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave depend on the isolator configurations and operation conditions. With a divergence isolator, the airflow is accelerated throughout the isolator and divergence section, leading to a maximum Mach number(~1.8) before the normal shock. The total pressure loss reaches the largest, and the detonation pressure drops. The upstream oblique shock wave can be suppressed within the divergence section with the divergence isolator.However, for the straight and convergence isolators, the airflow in the isolator with a larger ψ_(1)(0.3 and0.4) can suffer from the disturbance of the upstream oblique shock wave. The critical incident angle is around 39° at ground operation conditions. The upstream oblique shock wave tends to be suppressed when the engine operates under flight operation conditions. The critical pressure ratio β_(cr0) is found to be able to help in distinguishing the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave. Slightly below or above the β_(cr0) can obtain different marginal propagation results. The high-speed airflow in the divergence section affects the fuel droplet penetration distance, which deteriorates the reactant mixing and the detonation area. Significant detonation velocity deficits are observed and the maximum velocity deficit reaches 26%. The results indicate the engine channel design should adopt different isolator configurations based on the purpose of total pressure loss or disturbance suppression. This study can provide useful guidance for the channel design of a more complete two-phase rotating detonation engine.
文摘The incorporation of fluorine(F_(2)) into hydrogen-air(H_(2)/Air) mixtures presents a novel approach to enhancing the performance of rotating detonation engines(RDEs). This study systematically investigates the effects of F_(2)concentration and inlet mass flow rate on rotating detonation wave(RDW) propagation using two-dimensional numerical simulations, providing the first comprehensive analysis of F_(2)as an oxidizing additive in regulating detonation performance, propagation stability, and heat release dynamics in RDEs. The results indicate that when F_(2)concentration is below 1%, the flow field primarily exhibits a stable single-wave propagation mode. As F_(2)concentration increases, RDW performance initially improves but then deteriorates, reaching its optimal state at 0.8% F_(2). When F_(2)concentration exceeds 1%, the coupled effects of F_(2)concentration and inlet mass flow rate induce a transition from single-wave to multi-wave propagation modes. While a higher inlet mass flow rate promotes increased wave numbers, it also intensifies wave-wave interactions. With further increases in F_(2)concentration, the enhanced heat release leads to intensified local deflagration, frequent hotspot formation, and wave collisions, ultimately degrading RDW performance and destabilizing the multi-wave flow field. Moreover, excessive HF formation is identified as a critical driver of enhanced deflagration, hotspot generation,and the disruption of multi-wave stability. These findings provide a theoretical foundation for integrating F_(2)additives into H_(2)/Air-based RDE systems.

文摘Detonation performance is crucial for evaluating the power of high explosives(HEs),and the equation of state(EOS)that accurately describes the high-temperature,high-pressure,and high-temperature,medium-pressure states of detonation products is key to assessing the damage efficiency of these energetic materials.This article examines the limitations of the VLW EOS in representing the thermodynamic states of explosive detonation gas products under high-temperature and medium-to high-pressure conditions.A new gas EOS for detonation products,called VHL(Virial-Han-Long),is proposed.The accuracy of VHL in describing gas states under high-temperature and medium-to high-pressure conditions is verified,and its performance in evaluating explosive detonation and working capabilities is explored.The results demonstrate that VHL exhibits high precision in calculating detonation performance.Subsequently,the detonation performance of three new HEs(ICM-101,ONC,and TNAZ)was calculated and compared to traditional HEs(TATB,CL-20,and HMX).The results indicate that ONC has superior detonation performance compared to the other explosives,while ICM-101 shows a detonation velocity similar to CL-20 but with slightly lower detonation pressure.The detonation characteristics of TNAZ are comparable to those of the standard HE HMX.From the perspective of products,considering the comprehensive work performance(mechanical work and detonation heat),both ONC and ICM-101demonstrate relatively superior performance.

文摘With the increasing demand for secure infrastructure such as hydrogen refueling stations,chemical plants,and energy storage systems,the need for protective structures capable of withstanding close-in detonations has become more critical.Existing design guidelines for protective walls(e.g.,UFC 3-340-02)primarily address mid-and far-field explosions,providing limited insights into near-field effects.Considering the effect of slight slopes(<40°)on reducing maximum reflected overpressure is deemed negligible.This study investigated the effectiveness of a reinforced concrete(RC)modular protection system(MPS)incorpo rating a diagonally tapered wall in attenuating re flected overpressures from closein detonations.Full-scale field experiments using a 51.3 kg TNT charge,representing the explosion energy of a typical hydrogen vessel rupture,demonstrated that a wall with a 7°slope significantly outperformed a vertical wall of equivalent concrete volume in terms of blast resistance.Observed structural responses included cracking,horizontal shear failure,and overturning.Complementary simulations using a validated computational fluid dynamics(CFD)model showed that the tapered wall reduced peak overpressure by 30%-40%compared to an equivalent vertical wall.This result highlights the potential of minor geometric modifications to enhance blast resilience.The tapered design effectively redirects incident blast waves,reducing localized damage while also conserving material,thus preserving modular benefits such as ease of transport and reusability.These findings suggest that diagonally tapered RC-based MPSs can offer a practical and resilient solution for industrial and military applications subject to near-field or sequential blast threats.

文摘The stability of gaseous detonation waves is crucial for the operation of detonation-based propulsion systems and the assessment of industrial explosion hazards.However,research on the stability of detonation waves in complex reactive systems that are composed of actual fuels and oxidants and can be described by numerous elementary chemical reactions,has not been fully carried out.To investigate the relationship between linear and nonlinear stabilities in gaseous detonation wave propagation for complex reactive systems,the linear stability analysis and the one-dimensionally nonlinear numerical simulations of H_(2)/O_(2)/Ar(argon)detonations based on the reactive Euler equations and detailed reaction mechanisms are carried out.The results show that in complex reactive systems characterized by elementary chemical reactions,the results of linear stability computation of detonation are consistent with those from one-dimensionally nonlinear oscillations of detonation wave.Utilizing these linear stability results,a neutral stability curve and a perturbation frequency transition curve in the phase plane of initial pressure versus inert gas(Ar)dilution ratio are derived,especially the new frequency transition curve clearly describes the transition of perturbations from low-frequency to high-frequency mode.One-dimensional nonlinear simulations show that near the perturbation frequency transition curve,the oscillations of the detonation wave can also transform between the lowfrequency,high-amplitude oscillation mode and the high-frequency,low-amplitude oscillation mode,with the oscillation frequency corresponding to the mode that exhibits the maximum growth rate identified in the linear stability analysis.This investigation into detonation stability in complex reactive gases offers guidance for selecting appropriate initial conditions and gas compositions in practical applications of detonation.
