Experimental Study on the Effect of Jet Penetrating into Disconnected Targets with Water Medium

Abstract:

Using the experimental method for water medium interval target how to affect the ability of the jet penetration degree is determined. In order to verify the target interval between target and target medium effect on the jet penetration, with a shaped charge respectively on the interval of air and water medium target penetration experiment, the experimental results show that water medium for jet penetration does exist more adverse effect than air. It is combined with numerical simulation and experimental results to revise penetration of traditional formula.
