Abstract
A method of accurately measuring the electrical conductivity of shock compressed fluids is described. It is shown that when optimum geometry is used and when the shock impedance of fluid and electrodes are properly taken into account, the effect of reflected shocks can be understood. Data for carbon tetrachloride over a pressure range of 65 to 160 kilobars and a conductivity range of 10−1 to 10−7 mho/cm are presented. The accuracy of the measurements is better than 10%.Keywords
