Popis: In shock tubes, driver and driven section are usually separated by a diaphragm, which produces nearly ideal shock waves due to its instant rapture. However, known disadvantages of diaphragms motivate the investigation of diaphragmless shock tubes. One of these concepts is to replace a diaphram by a rapidly opening piston.
