Abstract

Within the framework of the scientific trend that was developed at the Russian Federal Nuclear Center, All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Experimental Physics, explosion-protecting chambers (EPCs) of different types with working volumes ranging from ∼10−3 to ∼10 m3 were developed and constructed. They are able to hermetically localize explosion products from explosive charges of units of grams to tens of kilograms (in the trinitrotoluene equivalent (TNTE)). Scientific and engineering approaches to designing the EPC structures, which are based on experimental methods and numerical simulation, are presented. Examples of developed chambers that are used in studies of a number of hydrodynamic processes are given.
