Abstract

Keywords

In this article we study the influence of material porosity on pene-

trative action of the powder shaped-charge jets formed during the

explosive collapse of the liners pressed from metal powder. We

employed numerical modeling within a two-dimensional axisym-

metric problem of continuum mechanics. It allowed us to research

the features of elongated porous projectiles penetration into a steel

target in the hydrodynamic mode (interaction velocity is several

kilometers per second). We considered the compressible elastic-

plastic matter with the Tait’s barotropic equation of state as a

target material. The model for the behavior of porous projectile

material was based on the assumption that closing of micropores

in the porous matter happens at a zero pressure, so it behaves as

monolithic. We compared the numerical modeling results with the

prediction given by the hydrodynamic theory with the incompres-

sible liquid assumption. We established that penetration depth

of porous rods exceeds the value calculated on Lavrentiev's formu-

la. The analysis of interaction in numerical calculations allows to

assume that this deviation is connected with formation of the

attached shock wave near a surface of contact with a target in the

course of penetration (penetration process for the porous projec-

tile has supersonic character due to essential reduction of sound

speed in porous materials). Based on this assumption and consi-

dering penetration process, Lavrentiev’s liquid jets collision in this

article we offer a simple model of elongated porous projectile

penetration. Its mathematical description includes system of equa-

tions for the attached shock wave front in the projectile, continuity

conditions on the surface of projectile and target contact and Ber-

noulli's equation which connects state parameters on a contact

surface with the shock wave parameters and with parameters of the

target. This model for porous projectile penetration depth allowed

us to define the ratio containing the additional multiplier to the

original Lavrentiev's formula. The multiplier depends on material

porosity. The output of calculations with this ratio is in compliance

with the result of numerical modeling
