Abstract

A brief account of the history of development of shock tubes throughout the world, the USSR, and Belarus is given. The principle of operation of a shock tube and some results for high-temperature gasdynamics obtained on shock tubes in the past years are shown. In these studies, the role of Rem Ivanovich Soloukhin is noted as a pioneer of experiments on shock tubes at the G. M. Krzhizhanovskii Institute of Power Engineering (1953–1958), the Siberian Branch of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR (from 1959), and in Belarus (from 1976).
