REVISED SIMILITUDE EQUATIONS FOR THE UNDERWATER SHOCK-WAVE PERFORMANCE OF PENTOLITE AND HBX-1
Abstract
All available data obtained from spherical and squat cylindrical HBX-1 and pentolite charges fired at the Naval Ordnance Laboratory and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution were used to determine revised similitude equations for underwater shockwave parameters. Each equation represents an average and so when plotted lies in the band formed by the curves of previously obtained similitude equations. Nomographs for obtaining shockwave parameters are included.
