摘要
The simulation of the artillery interior and intermediate ballistics problem is performed to investigate the influence of a gas dynamics device,muzzle brake,on the muzzle hazard phenomena,such as flash and blast waves.The correlation of the chemical reactions with the characteristics of the muzzle flow field is analyzed by the simulation for a further understanding of the secondary combustion phenomenon of the muzzle flow.The novel structure of muzzle flow caused by the muzzle brake is presented by the simultaneous solution of the interior ballistics model and multi-species Navier-Stokes equations in order to analyze the influence of the muzzle brake structure on the chemical reactions.The secondary combustion of the muzzle flow due to the oxygen-supplement chemical reactions is obtained by the chemical reaction kinetic model.The interaction of the blast waves released from the muzzle brake is illustrated in detail and the mechanism of the formation of muzzle flash is analyzed.This research provides a reference for the studies on the suppression of the muzzle flash.
