Abstract

Detonation is a specific type of a rapid exothermic reaction, which always involves a detonation wave (in the explosive) and the shock wave (in the environment). Modelling of the pressure wave falls in the fluid flow and interference with obstacles in the flow. The purpose of this paper is to development of simulation model based on the finite element method (FEM) for shock wave propagation in air form the explosion of a spherical charge from TriNitroToluene (TNT) material. The air is the classical ideal gas and explosive material TNT is defined using Jones-Wilkins-Lee (JWL) equation. The computational model is 2D-dimensional model with four node axisymmetric elements. The effect of the explosion on the pressure distribution in the air and rigid surface (ground) is investigated. Numerical solution of the dynamic response was performed using commercial FEM software ADINA.
