Abstract

On the basis of the steady state model of detonation, using Becker‐Kistiakowsky‐Wilson equation of state for gaseous products of detonation and Cowan‐Fickett equation of state for solid carbon, algorithm and computer program for the calculation of the detonation properties of CHNO type explosives are developed. The program has been tested by the comparison of the calculated data with experimental ones for some high explosives being of different densities and compositions. The calculated data have also been compared with data obtained by program FOR‐TRAN BK W. Both comparisons gave satisfactory agreement.

## Abstract The change in postdetonation free energy, rather than the often used change in detonation enthalpy, is suggested as a measure of the underwater performance of high explosives. Results of a correlation analysis of data from 11 explosives are presented. It is suggested that the detonation
