Efforts at Sandia National Laboratories have focused on fundamental experiments to understand the dispersal of dense particle distributions in high-speed compressible flow. The experiments are conducted in shock tube facilities where the flow conditions and the initial conditions of the particle distributions are well controlled and well characterized. An additional advantage of the shock tube is that it is more readily able to accommodate advanced measurement diagnostics in comparison to explosive field tests.
