Titel
Miniaturized detonation velocity measurement
Abstract
Small high explosive charges < 500 mg are commonly used for components within ignition chains, igniters for secondary high explosives or high speed actuators. Reaction velocity and stability of the used high explosive configuration strongly affects correct and sure functioning of these mini charges. Measurement of this reaction velocity under application conditions represents a tool for optimization purposes, e.g. minimal necessary high explosive mass or charge geometry.
