Non-ideal Explosive Performance In ABuilding Structure

The performance of a non-ideal explosive has been investigated in a reinforced concrete 2-room test structure with two different window and door configurations: (1) without and (2) with doors and a window. Pressure records at different locations of the two-room test structure for the two different configurations have been compared with each other and 3D CFD numerical simulations. Reaction efficiencies of fuel gases and aluminum particles in the explosive detonation products, especially the aerobic reaction with air, as functions of time have been estimated for the two cases and then compared with each other.
