Abstract
In order to investigate the heterogeneous detonation characteristics of aluminum particles/JP-10/air mixtures, the gas–solid two phase flow and detonation models were established using the discrete phase model (DPM) and turbulent combustion model, and detonation properties of the aluminum particles/JP-10/air mixtures were simulated. At stoichiometric concentrations of the solid particle–gas mixtures, and four different mass ratios (100% aluminum particles/air, 60% aluminum particles/40% gaseous JP-10/air, 40% aluminum particles/60% gaseous JP-10/air, 100% gaseous JP-10/air), results reveal that obvious reaction relaxation phenomenon exists in aluminum particles detonation process, however, addition of gaseous JP-10 to aluminum particles obviously contributes to higher steady detonation propagation velocity and extended reaction zone width. Furthermore, 60% aluminum particles/40% JP-10/air mixture achieves the highest detonation velocity up to 2128m/s, detonation pressure of 3.7MPa, efficiently enhanced reaction zone width of 0.369m, and the reaction times of JP-10/air and aluminum particles/air of 2.07μs and 5.65μs, respectively.
