Scope and content
R.C. 306

The detonation velocity, and the pressure, density and temperature in the wave front, are calculated for T.N.T. The adiabatic P - V relationship for the expansion of the products of the detonation wave is determined, along with the chemical composition of the gases during and to the end of the adiabatic expansion as in RC 212 [SZ/OEMU/31/6]. Tables and graphs are included.
