METHOD OF DETERMINING CHARACTERISTICS OF FOUGASSENESS (VERSIONS) Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC F42B35/00 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to the field of testing ammunition. When testing the shot of test object is made in the form of a fragment or a miniature model of ammunition from the ballistic installation, its charge is exploded in the given point, the characteristics of the passing air shock wave are recorded, formed when blasting of the test object having at the time of blasting the own speed, and their distribution in the half-space. Using the method of similarity and the obtained coefficients, the characteristics of fougasseness of real ammunition are determined, having the own speed, and their distribution in an infinite space. According to the second embodiment, after placement on the rigid surface of measuring platform of pressure sensors the shot of ammunition from the ballistic installation is made, its charge is exploded in the given point, and the characteristics of the passing air shock wave are recorded, formed when blasting the ammunition. Using the method of similarity, the characteristics of fougasseness of the ammunition are determined, having the own speed, and their distribution in an infinite space.

EFFECT: possibility of experimental determination of the characteristics of fougasseness close to the absolute values when blasting the ammunition having the own flight speed is provided.
