Seedling Project on the Simulation of Reactive Material Particle Combustion in High-Explosive Environments

Abstract

This work implemented non-ideal equation of state, afterburning, and metal particle combustion models into the HyBurn code.T he methods are demonstrated for a canonical problem of a high-explosive charge surrounded by an annular shell of aluminum particles. The results of the methods implemented by the HyBurn show the formation of particle fingers and the ignition and turbulent combustion of the dispersed Al particle cloud.
