Deflagration-to-detonation transition in small-diameter columns of PETN

Deflagration-to-detonation transition in small-diameter columns of PETN [electronic resource]

The transition from deflagration to detonation in pure pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) confined in small-diameter (2-mm) steel columns of three lengths (6.4, 9.6, and 12.8 mm) was examined. These relatively low density pressings of PETN were deflagrated by donor charges of high-density PETN that...
