Abstract
A shock tube was used in an investigation of enhancement of the rate of turbulent mixing in the region of contact between two media of different densities which is crossed by a shock wave in the direction from a light to a heavy gas. A determination was made of the influence of this process on the reduction in the amount of a pure shock-compressed gas located between the end of the shock tube and the contact mixing region. A maximum of the dependence of the mass defect on the Atwood number was observed.
