BS EN 13631 discusses explosives for civil uses. BS EN 13631-6 is the sixth part of the BS EN 13631 multi-series and discusses high explosives.
BS EN 13631-6 specifies a method for calculation of thermodynamic properties of high explosives used for civil uses.
BS EN 13631-15 on calculation of thermodynamic properties of high explosives used for civil uses is useful for:
Some properties of the explosives used to define their energetic performance on an a priori basis is obtained by means of a thermodynamic calculation. The outcome of such calculation, based on the composition and density of the explosive, is dependent on the detonation state considered, the thermodynamic data used and the calculation method itself.
BS EN 13631-15 provides you with the terms and definitions required for the functionality of this document. BS EN 13631-15 provides you with a method to calculate the detonation characteristics at the constant-volume explosion state and some parameters derived thereof. BS EN 13631-15 helps you to manufacture high-quality high explosives for civil use.
