Abstract

In this paper, a detonation gun of an antihail station was used to study acoustic waves as they propagated upward. The station's power was enhanced by placing a Hartmann resonance tube into the conical nozzle of the gun. Propagation speed, pressure-time waveform, and acoustic spectrum of the acoustic waves were determined. The propagation speed was approximately 890 m/s (Mach number ~2.6), and the initial (near-ground) intensity was 130-160 dB in the low-frequency range up to 200 Hz, where the energy distribution is relatively uniform. The results show that the antihail station can effectively influence atmospheric processes, either promoting rain precipitation or preventing hail formation.
