Abstract

The initiation and the propagation of detonation waves in a hemispherical chamber and the imploding shock waves that are the reflected detonation waves at the chamber wall are numerically investigated. The effects of the boundary layer and the non-uniformity of the flow field induced by the detonation wave on the imploding shock stability are examined. It is found that the effect of the boundary layer separation on the chamber wall has the strongest effect on the implosion focus.
