Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of quantum chemistry technology, and more specifically, relates to an efficient method and system for predicting and calculating the detonation performance parameters of thermobaric explosives. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the improvement of computer hardware performance and the development of numerical algorithms, numerical simulation has become an important tool for evaluating the explosive performance of aluminum-containing explosives. Traditional methods for obtaining detonation parameters of aluminum-containing explosives (such as detonation pressure, detonation velocity, and detonation heat) rely on multiple complex experiments, including detonation velocity tests, detonation pressure tests, detonation heat tests, and cylindrical tests. These methods suffer from significant safety risks, high costs, operational difficulties, and limited test data. At the same time, existing models such as JWL-Miller have limited generalization ability because key parameters need to be derived from cylindrical tests, making it difficult to accurately describe the dynamic impact of secondary reactions of aluminum powder on the detonation process.

[0003] From a thermodynamic perspective, the detonation of aluminum-containing explosives is essentially a dynamic equilibrium process between the oxidation reaction of aluminum powder and the expansion of detonation products. Its final state follows chemical equilibrium laws, reflecting the stable state with the lowest energy. However, traditional simplified models based on the CJ assumption struggle to accurately characterize the energy and mass transfer laws of non-ideal detonations. Furthermore, existing numerical methods combined with thermodynamic calculations suffer from significant errors in the coupled calculation of energy release and pressure wave propagation because the JWL equation of state does not consider the dynamic influence of the aluminum powder reactivity λ on the product composition distribution. Additionally, traditional nested iterative algorithms are inefficient and cannot meet the needs of rapid optimization in engineering. Therefore, developing a highly efficient iterative algorithm based on thermodynamic equilibrium correction and dual convergence criteria, utilizing a dynamic feedback mechanism involving aluminum powder participation in the secondary reactivity λ and a prediction-correction hybrid framework, enables rapid and accurate prediction of detonation parameters for aluminum-containing explosives. This has significant theoretical and practical value for reducing experimental costs, optimizing explosive formulations, and expanding their engineering applications.

[0004] Chinese patent CN113593650B discloses a method for calculating detonation parameters of mixed explosives. This invention describes the phase changes of the gaseous and condensed phases of the detonation products using the BKW equation of state and the Cowan equation of state, respectively. It combines the principle of minimizing chemical equilibrium free energy, CJ detonation theory, and Hugoniot relations to achieve numerical calculations of parameters such as detonation velocity and detonation pressure. However, it does not consider the actual reactivity of difficult-to-react components such as solid aluminum powder, and relying solely on the chemical equilibrium assumption may lead to significant calculation errors. Furthermore, it lacks a predictive mechanism and relies entirely on numerical iteration, resulting in long calculation times and limited convergence. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned deficiencies or improvement needs of existing technologies, this invention provides an efficient method and system for predicting and calculating the detonation performance parameters of thermobaric explosives. It addresses the problems in existing technologies, such as "existing experimental testing methods require numerous detonation tests, leading to long development cycles and high costs," "traditional methods over-rely on chemical equilibrium assumptions, failing to consider the actual reactivity and non-equilibrium effects of reacting components like solid aluminum powder, resulting in high deviation rates between theoretical and measured values," and "existing technologies rely entirely on numerical iterations, lacking an advance prediction mechanism." By introducing the dynamic participation of solid aluminum powder in the reactivity model and an advance prediction mechanism, a hybrid algorithm framework with adaptive convergence capability is constructed. This significantly reduces the number of numerical calculation iterations while maintaining computational accuracy, thereby significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of predicting detonation parameters for aluminum-containing explosives.

If the second convergence criterion is satisfied, output the explosion pressure, explosion temperature, explosion velocity, explosion heat, and the amount of each component in the equilibrium state of CJ.

[0054] In summary, compared with the prior art, the above-described technical solutions conceived by this invention mainly possess the following technical advantages:

[0055] 1. This invention achieves rapid convergence and high-precision matching of detonation parameter calculation by constructing a closed-loop technical route of "basic parameter setting - detonation parameter prediction - dynamic balance correction - dual criterion iteration - parameter output", which significantly improves the calculation efficiency and applicability. It provides an efficient tool with both theoretical rigor and engineering practicality for the optimization of aluminum-containing explosive formulations, and can effectively reduce the cost of detonation parameter testing and shorten the research and development cycle.

[0056] 2. This invention constructs a dynamic reaction participation model for aluminum powder and adjusts the reaction participation degree λ of aluminum powder in real time during the iteration process, which significantly reduces the deviation rate between theoretical and measured values ​​and significantly improves the calculation accuracy. It solves the problem in the prior art that relies on the chemical equilibrium assumption and ignores the degree to which solid aluminum powder actually participates in the secondary reaction.

[0057] 3. This invention establishes a process of "basic parameter setting → detonation parameter prediction → dynamic equilibrium correction". First, it quickly predicts detonation pressure, detonation velocity and detonation temperature based on empirical formulas, and then corrects them through the Gibbs minimum free energy principle and the BKW equation of state. Compared with traditional methods that rely on numerical iteration, the calculation time is greatly reduced.

[0062] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0063] like Figure 1As shown in this embodiment, the efficient prediction and calculation method for the detonation performance parameters of thermobaric explosives first completes the construction of the basic parameter system and reaction condition assumptions of aluminum-containing explosives: inputting core basic data such as the composition, density, mass, and initial environmental pressure of the aluminum-containing explosives, and assuming the percentage λ of aluminum powder participating in the secondary reaction, laying the initial condition foundation for subsequent calculations; secondly, based on existing formula theoretical models and the preset degree of aluminum powder participation in the secondary reaction λ, preliminary predictions are made of the detonation pressure P1, detonation temperature T1, and detonation velocity D of the aluminum-containing explosives, forming a set of benchmark input parameters for the detonation reaction stage of the explosives; thirdly, a thermodynamic equilibrium correction model is constructed to accurately calculate the products, using the preliminary predicted values ​​(P1, T1, D) as the reaction benchmark conditions, and a thermodynamic equilibrium model is constructed based on the Gibbs minimum free energy principle, systematically... The chemical composition distribution of the secondary reaction products is calculated, and then an improved BKW equation of state combined with equilibrium component data is used to accurately calculate the pressure P2 of the gaseous products. Next, a dual convergence criterion and a nested iterative mechanism are established: a pressure difference threshold criterion (|P2-P1|<δ) and an energy conservation criterion (E-E0-0.5(p-p0)(v0+v)<ε). The convergence of the two criteria is driven synchronously by a nested iterative algorithm. During the iteration process, the reactivity λ of aluminum powder participating in the secondary reaction is dynamically adjusted until both criteria simultaneously meet the accuracy requirements. Finally, when the iteration converges, the explosion pressure P1, explosion temperature T1, explosion velocity D, explosion heat E, and the amount of each component in equilibrium under the CJ equilibrium state are output synchronously. Finally, the JWL equation parameters applicable to aluminum-containing explosives are obtained by solving the equation. This invention achieves rapid convergence and high-precision matching of detonation parameter calculation through a closed-loop technical route of "basic parameter setting - detonation parameter prediction - dynamic balance correction - dual criterion iteration - parameter output", which significantly improves the calculation efficiency and applicability. It provides an efficient tool for optimizing aluminum-containing explosive formulations that combines theoretical rigor with engineering practicality, and can effectively reduce the cost of detonation parameter testing and shorten the research and development cycle.

[0064] More specifically, the method includes the following calculation steps:

[0065] (1) Complete the construction of the basic parameter system and reaction condition assumptions for aluminum-containing explosives: Input the core basic data such as the components, density, mass, and initial environmental pressure of the aluminum-containing explosives. Optional inputs include the amount of each component of the aluminum-containing explosives, the amount of substance of elements such as C, H, O, N, and Al, the mass m of the aluminum-containing explosives, the density ρ of the aluminum-containing explosives, the volume V of the aluminum-containing explosives, and the initial environmental pressure P0.

[0066] Alternatively, the calculation method may also include:

[0067] (2) Assume the percentage of aluminum powder participating in the secondary reaction, λ, to lay the initial condition foundation for subsequent calculations. Alternatively, assume the percentage of aluminum powder participating in the secondary reaction, λ, and recalculate the amount of each element participating in the reaction.

[0068] Alternatively, the calculation method may also include:

[0069] (3) Based on the existing formula theoretical model and the preset degree of secondary reaction of aluminum powder, the explosion pressure P1, explosion temperature T1 and explosion velocity D of aluminum explosive are initially predicted to form a set of benchmark input parameters for the detonation reaction stage of explosive.

[0070] In this step, the detonation pressure P1, detonation velocity D, and detonation temperature T1 are predicted based on the composition of the aluminum-containing explosive.

[0071] For explosive C a H b N c O d Al e The explosion pressure prediction uses the formula from the literature "Determination of performance of non-ideal aluminized explosives":

[0072]

[0073] The accuracy verification of the explosion pressure P prediction formula is shown in the table below:

[0074] Table 1. Accuracy Verification of Explosion Pressure Prediction Formula

[0075]

[0076] The detonation velocity D prediction formula uses the following detonation velocity calculation method:

[0077] D = D max -Kρ TMD η

[0078] D max =∑ε i D i

[0079] K = (1-η)∑K i ε i +K min η

[0080]

[0081] Where: ε i D represents the volume fraction of the formulation components. i V represents the characteristic detonation velocity of component i; i ρ is the volume of component i. TMD η is the theoretical density of the mixed explosive; K is the characteristic slope of the explosive; η is the porosity of the explosive; and D is the detonation velocity, which is the same as D1.

[0084]

[0085] The accuracy verification of the detonation velocity D prediction formula is shown in the table below:

[0086] Table 3. Accuracy Verification of Detonation Velocity Prediction Formula

[0087]

[0088] The formula for predicting explosion temperature uses the Castells heat capacity method:

[0089]

[0090] For diatomic molecules (such as N2, O2, CO, etc.): For water vapor: For triatomic molecules (such as CO2, HCN, etc.):

[0091] For tetraatomic molecules (such as NH3): For pentaatomic molecules (such as CH4): For carbon:

[0092] Alternatively, the calculation method may also include:

[0093] (4) Taking the aforementioned preliminary predictions of detonation pressure P1, detonation velocity D, and detonation temperature T1 as the standard initial conditions for the explosive detonation reaction, chemical equilibrium calculations are performed on the detonation product system based on the Gibbs minimum free energy principle in chemical thermodynamics to determine the detailed composition of the detonation products under the final equilibrium state. In this calculation process, the molar Gibbs free energy of the gaseous components in the detonation products is calculated according to the following standard thermodynamic expression:

[0094]

[0095] Where G represents the Gibbs free energy; ni represents the molar amount of the i-th explosion product; k represents the total number of gaseous products; the subscripts g and s represent gaseous products and condensed phase products, respectively; l represents the total number of chemical elements in the system; b k It is the molar amount of the kth component in the explosion products; a ik It is the number of atoms of the k-th element in the i-th product.

[0096] Alternatively, the calculation method may also include:

[0097] (5) Based on the secondary reaction equilibrium components obtained in the preceding steps, the Becker-Kistiakowsky-Wilson (BKW) equation of state is used to calculate the pressure of the detonation products. This equation, by introducing residual capacity correction and exponential correction terms for the product components, significantly improves the accuracy of detonation pressure calculation under high pressure conditions, and is particularly suitable for high-density detonation simulation of condensed explosives. The BKW equation of state is in the form of:

[0098]

[0099] ρ g =ρ0·(γ+1) / γ

[0100]

[0101] m g =∑n gi M gi

[0102] V g =m g / ρ g

[0103] Where: p represents pressure, V g Let be the molar gas volume, and R be the gas constant. α, β, κ, and θ are all adjustable parameters, and x... i and k i ρ represents the mole fraction and residual volume of each product component i, respectively; g γ is the density of the gaseous products; γ is the adiabatic index; m g n is the total mass of the gaseous products; gi M is the amount of substance of gaseous component i; gi Let be the relative molecular mass of gaseous component i;

[0104] Assume the products of the secondary reaction are C(s), H2, O2, CO, CO2, H2O, Al, Al2O3(l), N2, CH4, NH3, NO, NO2, N, and O.

[0105] The parameters for the BKW equation for aluminum-containing explosives are selected as follows:

[0107]

[0108] Table 5 Residual Capacity Values ​​of Gaseous Products

[0109]

[0110] Alternatively, the calculation method may also include:

[0111] (6) Compare the equilibrium product pressure P2 obtained based on the BKW equation of state with the initial predicted pressure P1 to determine whether the following conditions are met:

[0112] P2-P1<ε

[0113] If the above pressure criteria are not met, adjust the explosion pressure P1 and explosion temperature T2, and perform iterative calculations again.

[0114] If the above pressure criterion is met, then an energy conservation check is performed, and the energy conservation equation is in the form of:

[0115] E-E0-0.5(p2-p0)(v0+v)<ε

[0116] If the above energy conservation condition is not met, then return to adjust the percentage of aluminum powder participating in the secondary reaction λ, and recalculate iteratively.

[0117] If both the energy conservation criterion and the pressure criterion are satisfied, then the outputs are explosion pressure P2, explosion velocity D, explosion temperature T2, explosion heat E, and specific volume V.

[0118] Alternatively, the calculation method may also include:

[0119] (7) Based on the detonation pressure P2, detonation velocity D, detonation temperature T2, detonation heat E, and specific volume V of the aluminum-containing explosive obtained in the preceding steps, the expansion-driven work process of the detonation products is described using the Jones-Wilkins-Lee (JWL) equation of state. The JWL equation of state is as follows:

[0120]

[0121] In the formula: P2 is the detonation product pressure, V is the specific volume, E is the heat of detonation, A, B, R1, R2, and ω are material constants, and D is the detonation velocity, which is the same as D1.

[0122] Alternatively, the calculation method may also include:

[0123] (8) Based on the above JWL state equation, the parameters of the JWL state equation are obtained by solving, which are used to describe the expansion-driven work process of the detonation products.

[0124] Based on the degree of Al powder participation in the secondary reaction, the solution for Al powder not participating in the secondary reaction can be obtained. Assuming that the Al powder not participating in the secondary reaction undergoes complete aerobic combustion, an aluminum particle combustion model is used for calculation:

[0125]

[0126] In the formula: E Al The energy for the aerobic combustion of aluminum powder; t Al The combustion time of aluminum powder particles; v AlThe afterburning energy release rate; a: 0.00735; n: 1.8; X eff : Concentration of oxidant in air: 0.2; p: air pressure; T0: initial temperature; d: aluminum particle size.
