Hypervelocity impact phenomena

Conference Chhabildas, L.C.

There is a need to determine the equations of state of materials in regimes of extreme high pressures, temperatures and strain rates that are not attainable on current two-stage light-gas guns. Understanding high-pressure material behavior is crucial to address the physical processes associated with a variety of hypervelocity impact events related to space sciences-orbital-debris impact, debris-shield designs, high-speed plasma propagation, and impact lethality applications. At very high impact velocities material properties will be dominated by phase-changes, such as melting or vaporization, which cannot be achieved at lower impact velocities. Development of well-controlled and repeatable hypervelocity launch capabilities is the firstmore »« less

HVL{_}CTH: A Simple Tool That Simulates The Hyper-Velocity Launch of a Flyer Plate

Technical Report BLACKBURN, DANIEL R ; VOGLER, TRACY J ; CHHABILDAS, LALIT C

Sandia National Laboratories has developed a unique method for a hyper-velocity launch (HVL), the three-stage gun. The three-stage gun is a modified two-stage light-gas gun, consisting of a piston used in the first stage, an impactor in the second stage, and a flyer plate in the third stage. The impactor is made up of different material layers that are increasing in shock impedance. The graded or pillowed layers allow the flyer to be launched at velocities up to 16 km/s without the formation of a single shock wave in the flyer plate and without it melting. Under certain experimental conditionsmore »« less

Sandia hypervelocity gun technology for validating EOS at extreme pressures and temperatures

Technical Report Chhabildas, L.C. ; Furnish, M.D. ; Brannon, R.M. ; ...

At very high impact velocities material properties will be dominated by phase-changes, such as melting or vaporization. These phase changes are not easily attainable at typical light-gas gun velocities of 8km/s. Development of well-controlled shock loading capabilities is the first step necessary to improve the understanding of material behavior at extreme pressures and temperatures not currently available using conventional two-stage light-gas gun techniques. In this paper, techniques that have been used to extend both the launch capabilities of a two-stage light gas gun to 16 km/s, and their use to determine the material properties at pressures and temperature states highermore »« less

Time-resolved wave-profile measurements at impact velocities of 10 km/s

Conference Chhabildas, L.C. ; Furnish, M.D. ; Reinhart, W.D.

Development of well-controlled hypervelocity launch capabilities is the first step to understand material behavior at extreme pressures and temperatures not available using conventional gun technology. In this paper, techniques used to extend both the launch capabilities of a two-stage light-gas gun to 10 km/s and their use to determine material properties at pressures and temperature states higher than those ever obtained in the laboratory are summarized. Time-resolved interferometric techniques have been used to determine shock loading and release characteristics of materials impacted by titanium and aluminum fliers launched by the only developed three-stage light-gas gun at 10 km/s.

"Postage-Stamp PIV:" Small Velocity Fields at 400 kHz for Turbulence Spectra Measurements

Conference Beresh, Steven J. ; Henfling, John F. ; Spillers, Russell Wayne - Measurement Science and Technology

Time-resolved particle image velocimetry recently has been demonstrated in high-speed flows using a pulse-burst laser at repetition rates reaching 50 kHz. Turbulent behavior can be measured at still higher frequencies if the field of view is greatly reduced and lower laser pulse energy is accepted. Current technology allows image acquisition at 400 kHz for sequences exceeding 4,000 frames, but for an array of only 128 x 120 pixels, giving the moniker of "postage-stamp PIV." The technique has been tested far downstream of a supersonic jet exhausting into a transonic crossflow. Two-component measurements appear valid until 120 kHz at which pointmore »« less
