Attenuation of shock waves in granular filters has been studied. Both pressurized air and solid explosives have been used for generating shock waves in a shock tube. The shock tube had a total length of
m, and an internal diameter of 355 mm. Two large scale experiments have also been carried out in a tunnel with a cross-sectional area of 6.5 m2. The results are compared with results found in the literature (Zloch, 1976; Medvedev et al., 1990; Britan et al., 2001) and previous experiments in a smaller scale by Slungaard (2002). A simple correlation based on the work of Zloch (1976) for shock wave attenuation in tube bundles and an extensive amount of experiments, is proposed. The correlation
can be used to estimate the attenuation of the shock wave through a granular filter with filter characteristic
. Setting B=6 will give a conservative estimate of the attenuation, while setting B=3 will give the best fit to all the results from this study and the results found in the literature. The correlation is independent of the type of driver (pressurised air or solid explosives) and upstream shock strength.Received: 30 September 2002, Accepted: 19 December 2002, Published online: 6 March 2003 相似文献
We have recently proposed a data-driven correction reduced-order model (DDC-ROM) framework for the numerical simulation of fluid flows, which can be formally written as follows.
