Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for power control of a warhead, the cylindrical explosive charge having a defined porosity, wherein by deformation at least a portion of the explosive charge is compressed.
- the DE 198 21 150 C1 which forms a starting point for the independent claim, describes a detonatively deformable explosive charge.
- porous explosive having a porosity of 5 - 25% is used.
- the typical volume reduction is about 5 - 10%.
- It describes the application of the one-sided deformation of the explosive charge, which aims to concentrate the power of the explosive charge and the splinters produced in it in a desired direction in order to increase the effect in this direction.
- the not yet deformed explosive charge is still detonationstransport depending on the porosity.
- the DE 10 2005 031588 B3 describes a warhead having a porous explosive charge, which can be partially decomposed by means of deflagration and the other part of which can accommodate the increase in volume of the deflagration part by deformation (compression).
- the porous explosive charge is already detonated before deformation. Thus, reducing the performance of the warhead also reduces collateral damage.
- the present invention has the object to develop an advantageous alternative to the aforementioned examples, which behaves quasi like an inert charge prior to initiation, or emits a low deflagration power at maximum unintentional ignition to a high level of safety during storage and transport to achieve.
- the porous explosive charge which has a low density below the detonation limit, is at least partially compressed by means of controlled axial compression to a higher density which is above the detonation limit.
- This part of the explosive charge can then be implemented detonatively by means of another ignition device.
- this explosive charge due to their density can only be initiated deflagrativ.
- the further the axial compression progresses the more parts of the explosive charge are compressed beyond the detonation limit.
- the ignition timing of the explosive charge this results in a control of the detonative effect of the explosive charge in the range of 0 to 100%. In the case of a fragment-forming warhead thus splinter production can be adjusted within wide limits.
- the particular advantage of an explosive charge according to the invention is the high safety during storage and transport.
- the porous explosive charge is very safe from compression because the explosive charge has a density well below the so-called critical density, which is the limit for detonation capability.
- critical density which is the limit for detonation capability.
- the compression takes place with the aid of an inert plate resting against the end face of the cylindrical charge, which is accelerated towards the explosive charge by means of another suitable explosive charge and the latter is thus compressed.
- the inert plate may be designed as an insert of an EFP charge which, upon initiation by forward folding, produces a flat plate which in turn compresses the porous explosive charge.
- a plurality of detonators can be arranged on the front side of the explosive charge, which together form an approximately flat pressure wave which is used to compress the porous explosive charge.
- the compression of the explosive charge not only in the direction of the main axis, but at the same time also radially, if this is a separate arranged in the region of the main axis explosive charge is used. In their place can also occur a single powerful trained detonation cord.
- the FIG. 1 shows a warhead GK with a porous explosive charge PHE and a fragment-forming metal shell MH.
- the warhead is cylindrical in the embodiment, without this being a limitation for other designs.
- the charge PHE is the FIG. 1 bounded by a stamp or a flying plate FP.
- the first ignition chain ZK 1 acts on an entire area on the flying plate resting booster charge VL, which presses the flying plate FP in the direction of the main axis HA on the explosive charge PHE after initiation. As a result, a compression of the explosive charge PHE takes place.
- a further ignition chain ZK 2 is provided for the explosive charge itself.
- FIG. 2 After triggering the ignition system ZK 1 starts, as in FIG. 2 shown the compression process.
- PHE runs a shock wave STW in the FIG. 2 ahead to the right moving flying plate FP.
- the area behind the current shock wave is already compressed to a largely non-porous explosive charge HE.
- the latter can be initiated detonatively in contrast to the pore-containing explosive charge PHE, since its density was compressed in the direction of the theoretical maximum density TMD.
- the detonation velocity increases linearly with increasing density.
- the performance of the explosive charge in turn grows in the square of the detonation speed. This allows a more flexible use of this explosive charge.
- the ignition can be realized in different ways.
- the further ignition chain ZK 2 located in the FIG. 1 . This is designed so that it can generate a maximum of one deflagration in the uncompressed explosive charge PHE, or at most a shockwave.
- the shock-detonation transition known from explosives physics (SDT abbreviation) or the deflagration-detonation transition (abbreviation DDT) occurs.
- FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of the invention.
- the compression shock wave is predominantly introduced radially into the PHE charge.
- This can, for example, as in FIG. 3 represented by means of an axial, ie in the direction the central axis arranged central explosive charge HEZ take place, which extends over the entire length of the explosive charge and has a diameter in the range of 5 - 25% of the diameter of the explosive charge PHE.
- the explosive charge HEZ is conventionally initiated by means of the first ignition chain ZK 1, which can be recognized on the left side.
- the further ignition chain ZK 2 on the right side in the FIG. 3 excites a shock or deflagration wave STW in not yet compressed part PHE the explosive charge.
- the plastic plate KS serves as damping for the incoming in the axial charge HEZ detonation wave.
- the initiated axial charge HEZ generates a shock wave STW which preferably propagates in the radial direction and continuously compresses the porous part PHE of the explosive charge from left to right.
- the proportion of detonatively and fragmentally convertible charge parts HE is determined by the delayed ignition of the further ignition chain ZK 2. The longer this ignition time is delayed, the greater the proportion of the compressed charge HE. If the shock wave STW reaches the metal shell MH, the full splitter performance is already achieved here.
- the slope of the front of the shock wave STW can be controlled. Indirectly, this affects the ratio of the recompressed charge PHE to the compressed charge HE and hence the controllability of the charge.
- the detonation velocity within the central explosive charge HE can be influenced by the incorporation of delay elements, such as damping disks. Examples of such elements would be plastics or metal foams.
- the procedure according to FIGS. 3 and 4 is particularly suitable for long loads, as in a compression process after the Figures 1 and 2 the PHE column to be compressed would be too long and complete compression would no longer be guaranteed.
- a variant of this is when, instead of the plastic plate KS from the FIGS. 3 and 4 a damping material together with one outside the plastic plate arranged, mechanical and / or electronic timer is installed.
- the detonation wave DW reaches the damping material, it generates a damped shock wave.
- the timer Upon reaching the timer, it is still strong enough to trigger a mechanical or electronic timer. But it is also weak enough to leave the further ignition chain ZK 2 intact. After the delay time, the further ignition chain ZK 2 is initiated.
- the diameter of the axially arranged explosive charge HEZ from the FIGS. 3 and 4 depends on the design parameters such as density and size of the uncompressed PHE charge. In general, this diameter will be in the order of a few centimeters in a warhead.
- FIG. 5 is in longitudinal and cross-section an alternative solution with multiple detonation cords DET instead of in FIG. 3 illustrated rod-shaped explosive charge HEZ shown.
- Their design also depends on the density and the size of the charge PHE to be compressed. Depending on this, the necessary number and distribution of the detonation cords DET in the charge PHE results.
- detonation cords are available in different configurations such as different explosives or different outer shells. This results in different detonation speeds, which in turn allow a wide range of design options. From this, the optimum meterability of each individual charge can then be determined.
- a number of detonating cords DET are arranged radially around a central detonating cord so as to be approximately parallel to the skin axis HA of the charge. It is equally possible to lay the detonation cords in a spiral arrangement within the charge PHE. This allows a locally high compression of the charge to be compressed. Further advantageous variants are possible with the aid of such detonation cords.
- FIG. 6 shows the progressive compression process after ignition of the first ignition chain ZK 1.
- the detonation waves DW run along the detonation cords DET and pull, similar to in FIG. 4 shown and described, each a shock wave STW after. Like from the FIG. 6 can be seen, takes place after a short course of the detonation waves in the radial direction approximately complete compression of the porous charge part PHE. The ignition of the compressed charge part HE then takes place again in the conventional way with the aid of the further ignition chain ZK 2.
- the condition applies that the complete compaction of the porous charge part PHE does not have to be awaited until initiation can take place via the further ignition charge ZK 2. Rather, a central detonation signal can also be brought to the already compressed part of the charge HE and ignited at the desired time from this detonating chain, for example via a further ignition or detonation cord. Thus, a further flexibility of the metering of the charge is achieved.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Leistungssteuerung eines Gefechtskopfes, dessen zylindrische Sprengladung eine definierte Porosität aufweist, wobei mittels Deformation wenigstens ein Teil der Sprengladung komprimiert wird.The invention relates to a method for power control of a warhead, the cylindrical explosive charge having a defined porosity, wherein by deformation at least a portion of the explosive charge is compressed.

Die
Demgegenüber liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine vorteilhafte Alternative zu den vorgenannten Beispielen zu entwickeln, welche sich vor der Initiierung quasi wie eine inerte Ladung verhält, bzw. bei ungewollter Zündung maximal eine niedrige deflagrative Leistung abgibt um eine hohe Sicherheit bei Lagerung und Transport zu erzielen.In contrast, the present invention has the object to develop an advantageous alternative to the aforementioned examples, which behaves quasi like an inert charge prior to initiation, or emits a low deflagration power at maximum unintentional ignition to a high level of safety during storage and transport to achieve.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch das beschriebene Verfahren gelöst. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by the method described. Further developments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.
Die in den Ansprüchen beschriebenen Verfahren können unter dem Thema axiale Verdichtungsstoßwelle zusammengefasst werden. Somit wird in vorteilhafter Weise die poröse Sprengladung, die eine niedrige Dichte unterhalb der Detonationsgrenze aufweist, mittels gesteuerter axialer Kompression wenigstens teilweise auf eine höhere Dichte verdichtet, die über der Detonationsgrenze liegt. Dieser Teil der Sprengladung lässt sich dann mittels einer weiteren Zündeinrichtung detonativ umsetzen. Im Ausgangszustand ist diese Sprengladung aufgrund ihrer Dichte nur deflagrativ initiierbar. Je weiter jedoch die axiale Kompression fortschreitet um so mehr Teile der Sprengladung werden über die Detonationsgrenze hinaus verdichtet. Durch geschickte Wahl des Zündzeitpunkts der Sprengladung ergibt sich daraus eine Steuerung der detonativen Wirkung der Sprengladung im Bereich von 0 bis 100 %. Im Fall eines splitterbildenden Gefechtskopfes kann somit die Splittererzeugung in weiten Grenzen eingestellt werden.The methods described in the claims can be summarized under the topic axial compression shock wave. Thus, advantageously, the porous explosive charge, which has a low density below the detonation limit, is at least partially compressed by means of controlled axial compression to a higher density which is above the detonation limit. This part of the explosive charge can then be implemented detonatively by means of another ignition device. In the initial state, this explosive charge due to their density can only be initiated deflagrativ. However, the further the axial compression progresses, the more parts of the explosive charge are compressed beyond the detonation limit. By skillful choice of the ignition timing of the explosive charge, this results in a control of the detonative effect of the explosive charge in the range of 0 to 100%. In the case of a fragment-forming warhead thus splinter production can be adjusted within wide limits.
Der besondere Vorteil einer erfindungsgemäßen Sprengladung ist die hohe Sicherheit bei Lagerung und Transport. Die poröse Sprengladung ist vor der Kompression sehr sicher, weil die Sprengladung eine Dichte aufweist, die deutlich unterhalb der so genannten kritischen Dichte liegt, die die Grenze für die Detonationsfähigkeit darstellt. Somit können die Bedingungen für die Safety Tests ohne Probleme erfüllt werde und die Klassifikation einer solchen Sprengladung ist wesentlich unkritischer.The particular advantage of an explosive charge according to the invention is the high safety during storage and transport. The porous explosive charge is very safe from compression because the explosive charge has a density well below the so-called critical density, which is the limit for detonation capability. Thus, the conditions for the safety tests can be fulfilled without any problems and the classification of such an explosive charge is much less critical.
In vorteilhafter Weise erfolgt die Kompression mit Hilfe einer an der Stirnseite der zylindrischen Ladung anliegenden inerten Platte, die mittels einer weiteren geeigneten Sprengladung in Richtung Sprengladung hin beschleunigt wird und letztere damit komprimiert. Die inerte Platte kann als Einlage einer EFP-Ladung konzipiert sein, welche nach erfolgter Initiierung mittels Vorwärtsfaltung eine ebene Platte erzeugt, die ihrerseits die poröse Sprengladung komprimiert.Advantageously, the compression takes place with the aid of an inert plate resting against the end face of the cylindrical charge, which is accelerated towards the explosive charge by means of another suitable explosive charge and the latter is thus compressed. The inert plate may be designed as an insert of an EFP charge which, upon initiation by forward folding, produces a flat plate which in turn compresses the porous explosive charge.
Alternativ zu einer inerten Platte kann stirnseitig zur Sprengladung eine Vielzahl von Detonatoren angeordnet sein, die bei gemeinsamer Zündung eine annähernd ebene Druckwelle ausbilden, die zur Kompression der porösen Sprengladung genutzt wird.As an alternative to an inert plate, a plurality of detonators can be arranged on the front side of the explosive charge, which together form an approximately flat pressure wave which is used to compress the porous explosive charge.
In vorteilhafter Weise kann die Kompression der Sprengladung nicht nur in Richtung der Hauptachse, sondern gleichzeitig auch radial erfolgen, wenn hierfür eine eigene im Bereich der Hauptachse angeordnete Sprengladung genutzt wird. An deren Stelle kann auch eine einzelne leistungsstark ausgebildete Detonationsschnur treten.Advantageously, the compression of the explosive charge not only in the direction of the main axis, but at the same time also radially, if this is a separate arranged in the region of the main axis explosive charge is used. In their place can also occur a single powerful trained detonation cord.
Weiterhin ist es vorteilhaft eine Vielzahl von Detonationsschnüren in einem Abstand rund um die Hauptachse der Sprengladung für deren Kompression einzusetzen.Furthermore, it is advantageous to use a plurality of detonation cords at a distance around the main axis of the explosive charge for their compression.

In den Figuren der Zeichnung sind verschiedene Vorrichtungen zur Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens zur Leistungssteuerung eines Gefechtskopfes dargestellt und in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung erläutert. Aus der Darstellung in den Figuren ergibt sich jedoch keine Beschränkung auf genau diese Ausführungsformen.In the figures of the drawing, various devices for carrying out the method according to the invention for power control of a warhead are shown and explained in the following description. From the illustration in However, the figures are not limited to exactly these embodiments.
Die
Nach Auslösung des Zündsystems ZK 1 beginnt, wie in
Die Zündung kann auf unterschiedliche Art realisiert werden. In der
Eine Alternative hierzu (in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt) besteht darin, dass im Bereich der fliegenden Platte FP oder innerhalb des zuerst verdichteten Teils HE der Sprengladung eine robuste Zündkette angeordnet wird. Die erzielte Wirkung ist in beiden Fällen gleichartig. Der bereits verdichtete Teil HE der Sprengladung erzeugt die volle Splitterleistung, der noch nicht verdichtete Teil PHE gibt jedoch nur eine sehr geringfügige Splitterleistung ab. Somit lässt sich die Splitterleistung in sehr weiten Grenzen einstellen.An alternative to this (not shown in the drawing) is that in the area of the flying plate FP or within the first compressed part HE of the explosive charge a robust ignition chain is arranged. The effect achieved is similar in both cases. The already compacted part HE of the explosive charge generates the full splitter power, but the not yet compressed part PHE gives only a very small fragmentation performance. Thus, the splitter performance can be set within very wide limits.
Für die technische Auslegung dieser Lösung ist zu beachten, dass eine symmetrische Detonationsfront auf die fliegende Platte FP einwirken muss. Die wird beispielsweise durch Anwendung eines so genannten Plane-Wave-Generators; der eine planare Stoßwelle erzeugt, erreicht. Aber auch ein Zündkettensystem, das beispielsweise aus mehreren ringförmig angeordneten Detonatoren besteht, kann diese Anforderung erfüllen. Hinsichtlich der Dimensionierung der die fliegende Platte beschleunigenden scheibenförmigen Verstärkerladung VL ist anzumerken, dass diese abhängig von den Eigenschaften der PHE-Ladung und der daraus sich ergebenden Arbeit zur Schließung der Poren einzustellen ist.For the technical design of this solution, it should be noted that a symmetrical detonation front must act on the flying plate FP. This is achieved, for example, by using a so-called plane wave generator; which generates a planar shock wave reached. But even a Zündkettensystem, which consists for example of a plurality of annularly arranged detonators, can meet this requirement. With regard to the dimensioning of the disk-accelerating charge VL that accelerates the flying disk, it should be noted that this is to be set depending on the properties of the PHE charge and the work resulting therefrom for closing the pores.

Derartige Detonationsschnüre sind in unterschiedlichen Konfigurationen wie beispielsweise unterschiedlichen Sprengstoffen oder unterschiedlichen Außenhüllen erhältlich.

Hieraus lässt sich dann die optimale Dosierbarkeit jeder einzelnen Ladung bestimmen.Such detonation cords are available in different configurations such as different explosives or different outer shells. This results in different detonation speeds, which in turn allow a wide range of design options. From this, the optimum meterability of each individual charge can then be determined.

Für alle hier beschriebenen Beispiele beziehungsweise die gleichartig wirkenden Ausführungsformen gilt die Bedingung, dass nicht die vollständige Verdichtung des porösen Ladungsteils PHE abgewartet werden muss, bis über die weitere Zündkette ZK 2 die Initiierung erfolgen kann. Vielmehr kann auch von dieser Zündkette beispielsweise über eine weitere Zünd- oder Detonationsschnur ein zentrales Detonationssignal an den bereits verdichteten Teil der Ladung HE herangeführt und zum gewünschten Zeitpunkt gezündet werden. Damit wird eine weitere Flexibilität der Dosierbarkeit der Ladung erreicht.For all examples described here or the embodiments having the same effect, the condition applies that the complete compaction of the porous charge part PHE does not have to be awaited until initiation can take place via the further
