Abstract
This paper describes an experimental study and a quasi-one-dimensional calculation of acceleration of dispersed particles by gas detonation products in an expanding channel. The calculations show the possibility of a significant increase in the velocity of powder particles due to the conical expansion of a detonation channel. For particles with sizes of 30 ÷ 40 mm at cone angles of 2 ÷ 4 ºC, the maximum velocity increase reaches 35 ÷ 60 %. A method is developed for fixing the luminescence of a packet of dispersed particles accelerated in a detonation channel by a photosensor, which makes it possible to measure the particle velocity with an accuracy of ±5 %. The calculation results are in good agreement with the experimental data.
