This work provides a design methodology for a typical energetic system to get Type V insensitive munition (IM) response against fast cook-off threat. Experimental and numerical results for a generic test item filled with PBXN-109 explosive are presented. Two key aspects of IM design against fast cook-off threat are investigated, which are "time-to-reaction" and "critical ventilation area". By dividing the problem to pre-ignition and post-ignition, the complexity of the problem is reduced. The first part of the study covers two-dimensional and three-dimensional simulations of the problem, where the generic test item is modelled using commercial CFD software (ANSYS-Fluent). The second part of the study reveals low pressure (2-10 MPa) burning characteristics of a PBXN-109 by strand burner tests. After obtaining the pressure dependent burning rate, a conservation of mass equation is used to determine the chamber pressure using MATLAB Simulink software. Calculations are in reasonable agreement with the experimental results. Calculations are compared with the tests performed. The results are in reasonable agreement with some discrepancies of 8.9% for time to reaction prediction and of 10.9% for ventilation characteristics analyses. Possible reasons of these differences are discussed.

Calculation of Detonation Properties of Gaseous Explosives Using Generalized Reduced Gradient Nonlinear Optimization
Ulaş, Abdullah (Wiley, 2011-08-01)
In this paper, a study on the development of a numerical modeling of the detonation of C-H-N-O-based gaseous explosives is presented. In accordance with the numerical model, a FORTRAN computer code named GasPX has been developed to compute both the detonation point and the detonation properties on the basis of Chapman-Jouguet (C-J) theory. The determination of the detonation properties in GasPX is performed in chemical equilibrium and steady-state conditions. GasPX has two improvements over other thermodyna...
Assessment of a frequency-domain linearised Euler solver for turbofan aft radiation predictions and comparison with measurements
Özyörük, Yusuf (2010-03-31)
This paper presents a frequency-domain computational aeroacoustics tool for predicting aft noise radiation through turbofan ducts and jets and its application to two realistic engine exhaust configurations which have been experimentally tested. The tool is based on the discretised axisymmetric form of the linearised Euler equations in conjunction with perfectly matched layer equations at the inlet and far-field boundaries using high-order finite differences. The resultant linear system of equations is inver...
Application of pressure gauge measurement method beyond its limits
Kutukcu, Basak; Ayrancı Tansık, İnci (Elsevier BV, 2019-01-01)
The key design parameter for most solid-liquid operations in a stirred tank is the just suspended speed, N-js. In majority of the literature N-js is determined by visual observation of the tank bottom. This method is observer dependent, and the results may vary up to 38% between two observers. A more recent method, pressure gauge measurement (PGM) method, is promising as it is based on pressure measurements at the bottom of the tank, and therefore is observer independent. This method also does not require a...
EVALUATION OF SECOND VIRIAL COEFFICIENTS FROM SATURATION DATA
Orbey, H.; Orbey, N. (Informa UK Limited, 1989-3)
A data reduction technique is introduced for the evaluation of second virial coefficients of gases at subcritical temperatures. The method makes use of the vapor-liquid equilibrium data, i.e., temperature, saturation pressure, liquid and vapor molar volumes and can be used to obtain second virial coefficients of a wide variety of fluids including polar, associating and quantum gases. The calculated second virial coefficients are in good agreement with their counterparts from literature, which are obtained f...
Investigation of a generic warhead containing plastic bonded explosive under liquid fuel fire by numerical and test methods
Şahin, Hakan; Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda; Narin, Bekir; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2015)
The present work provides a design methodology for a munition against fast cook-off threat for type V insensitivity requirement. The experimental and numerical results for a generic test item (warhead) filled with a PBXN-109 explosive are presented. Two key points for the design of an insensitive munition against fast cook-off threat, which are time to reaction and critical vent area is studied. Dividing the problem as pre-ignition and post- ignition will allow one to manage this complex problem to handle e...
