Explosive Formation and Spreading of Water-Spray Cloud - Experimental Development and Model Analyses

The paper presents results of experimental investigations and model analysis concerning the expansion of explosively produced water-spray cloud. The regular shape of water-spray cloud produced by a charge placed in a bag flled with water is attained. Effective dispersion of bags containing 600 up to 1500 litres of water is attained. The rise and deceleration of external zone of water-spray cloud is described analytically. The parameters of pressure feld evolving around the explosively formed spray cloud were registered.
