Abstract
In this study, based on a closed bomb test combined with computational fluid dynamics, a structural finite element method, and an acoustic boundary element method, a fluid-solid acoustic one-way coupling calculation model is established for the combustion process of energetic materials in a closed bomb, and the effectiveness of the model is verified by experiments. It is found that the maximum peak sound pressure increases exponentially with an increase in loading doses or gas pressure. However, a change in the combustion coefficient of the energetic materials has little effect on the noise generated during the combustion process in the closed bomb. When the combustion coefficient is reduced by a multiple of 16, the maximum transient sound pressure is reduced by 1.79 dB, and the sound pressure level in the frequency band is reduced by 1.75 dB. With an increase in shell thickness, the combustion noise of the energetic materials in the closed bomb decreases, and the reduction range of the combustion noise increases with the increase in shell thickness.
