This article presents methodological advances in the state-of-the-art for making time-dependent, thermochemical measurements within kilogram-scale explosive post-detonation fireballs utilizing tunable laser absorption spectroscopy. This measurement capability is critical for validating multi-scale, multi-physics models of post-detonation dynamics. The technique is based on hardened gauges built around rapidly-tunable lasers and custom post-processing algorithms that provide quantitative thermochemical data interior to large and opaque explosive fireballs. The authors present a holistic overview of the technique including gauge design, the laser absorption diagnostic, and the custom data processing algorithms. Additionally, fielding high-bandwidth laser absorption probes at stand-off ranges presents new challenges in data processing that must compensate for long distance signal transmission effects. We highlight representative data from a hardened gauge measurement at 0.81 m stand-off from a 2.78 kg LX-14 explosive charge detonated in an outdoor test arena. We discuss progress in all-optical measurement of temperature, pressure, and water vapor number density at a 100 kHz repetition rate during the first 10 ms of the fireball evolution. We conclude the article with a brief discussion on our current approach for comparing hardened gauge measurements with computational fluid dynamic simulations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
