Abstrakt: In this paper, we present the results of the explosive dispersal of particles in high-speed environments. We carry out Euler–Lagrange numerical simulations of a source at quiescent ambient conditions as well as moving at Mach numbers of 3 and 6. Particle volume fractions of 0%, 1%, and 4.5% are presented. The detonation profile is computed with the Jones–Wilkins–Lee equation of state using a reactive burn model. Non-static cases provide a framework to consider the effect of a bow shock and pre-existing high-speed flow conditions on the dispersal process. We also compute averages of both static and dynamic pressures, as well as impulse density histories on virtual probe planes to characterize the momentum of the flow and particles that would deposit on a target. Results suggest that the presence of the particles can have a substantial effect on the pressure average of the virtual target planes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
