Abstract

Abstract

The progress in explosive safety studies related to experiment achievements with precise diagnostics and understanding of non-shock initiation of explosive phenomena in recent 20 years is reviewed. Some widespread misconceptions and misleading in non-shock initiation reaction behavior and corresponding process modeling is commented and suggestions for improvement are given. Recent experiments focused on the reaction propagation and violence evolution conducted by the author’s team in recent years are introduced and interpreted in detail as an illustration of the basic mechanism of non-shock initiation reaction. For low porosity explosive, the abnormal reaction behavior is dominated by the surface conductive burning and the convective flow of hot, high pressure gaseous reaction products through confinement slot and cracks in explosive bulk, which should be taken as the basic kinetics during the reaction propagation and reaction violence growth process. The evolution of reaction violence is unstable when the surface combustion is coupled with the dynamic evolution of crack network in explosive, but the utmost violence is usually limited by the mild conductive combustion rate of typical secondary explosive and confinement failure. Especially, the deflagration to detonation transition could hardly come true in low porosity explosive system with confinement of limited strength.
