Shock wave focus is a phenomenon where energy is rapidly converged in a small area of the medium through the interaction of shock waves, resulting in extremely high temperature and pressure near the aerodynamic focus. Experimental and numerical studies are in progress using the high energy area generated by shock wave focus to induce detonation to study shock wave focus phenomenon, the experiments of shock wave focus in the hemispherical concave cavity was carried out. The emphasis is placed on the effect of ring vent width and inlet pressure. By comparing the peak pressure at the bottom of the concave cavity under different ring vent widths, it was found that the reflection of the incident shock wave formed in the channel decreased with the width of the ring vent as well as the intensity of the shock wave increased. The greater the intensity, the more likely it is to produce the focusing of the shock wave. When the subsonic speed airflow flowed into the cavity through the ring vent, it was found that under the influence of the reflection of the concave cavity and complex motion of shock wave, a local high temperature and high pressure area was formed. By comparing the pressure spectrum at the bottom of the concave cavity under different flow pressures, it was found that with the increase of the flow pressure, there were two whistling modes on the spectrum map, C1 and D1 modes, respectively. It was also found that the pressure pulsation in the concave cavity was more disordered and the magnitude was smaller when the inlet pressure decreased, which means the shock waves were not well focused. It can be concluded that in ignition experiments, inlet pressure is significant to shock wave focusing phenomenon and there is a prompt rehydration ratio which lead to better shock wave focusing.
