A NEW APPARATUS FOR THE DETERMINATION OF THE IGNITION TEMPERATURE OF EXPLOSIVES

Abstract

A new type of apparatus for use in determining the "Ignition temperature" of explosives has been devised. It consists of a 11 ne rod aluminum bar, heated at one end, and drilled with a uniformly spaced series of sample holes along length of the bar. In this way a number of different and relatively constant temperature levels is obtained.
