Detonation of a mixture of RDX particles partially filling a cylindrical channel

Using a mathematical model of a two-phase, two-velocity medium, detonation in an annular layer of a suspension of volatile secondary explosives adjacent to the wall of a cylindrical channel is numerically investigated. The dynamics of formation and the special features of the structures of a two-dimensional reaction zone of a detonation wave in a gas mixture of RDX particles are discussed. A detonation regime with a vortex structure of the reaction zone is obtained in calculations for the first time. The geometrical limits of detonation in a channel are determined.
