Abstract
A parametric study has been made on the performance of a conical discharge shock generator. From these studies it has been possible to formulate general ground rules to be followed in designing a shock tube of this type capable of producing a single high‐velocity shock at gas pressures varying from 25–2000 μ. Typically, shocks of Ms ≈ 150 have been produced in D2 at 100 μ pressure.Keywords
