Abstract

Based on the platform of AUTODYN-2D, a numerical simulation research was carried out on the jet formation and penetrating behavior of titanium alloy shaped charge, to explore the influence of cone angle, liner thickness, and wave-shaper on jet formation and penetrating steel target of titanium alloy shaped charge. The results show that the cone angle, liner thickness and wave-shaper have obvious effects on the formation and penetration behavior of titanium alloy jet. The increase of cone angle can enlarge the penetration diameter but decrease the penetration depth. With the increase of the liner thickness, the penetration depth of the steel target increases first and then decreases. The jet head velocity and penetration depth can be significantly improved by using wave-shaper.
