Provided is a device which can reliably generate a vapor explosion. A device which can reliably generate a vapor explosion and shock waves is proposed. This device is provided as an experimental for research and development of a vapor explosion and shock waves, and paves the way for applications to motors or turbines. A high-temperature liquid (0102) including a molten metal is retained in the inside of a liquid retention container (0101). Heating devices (0103) to maintain the high-temperature liquid at a high temperature are provided around the liquid retention container. An inlet (0104) through which water is intermittently charged is provided in the bottom portion of the liquid retention container, and a pressure-proof valve (0105) is provided in the inlet so as to close the inlet. The pressure-proof valve closes the inlet using a force of a spring (0106). However, when the pressure-proof valve is moved upwardly by a timing cam (0107), water is intermittently charged through a clearance between the valve and the inlet. When the water is intermittently charge to the bottom portion-side high-temperature liquid, an vapor explosion and shock waves occur. |
