METHOD FOR IMITATION OF THERMOMECHANICAL ACTION OF X-RAY RADIATION OF NUCLEAR EXPLOSION AT SAMPLES OF STRUCTURAL MATERIALS

摘要

FIELD: physics, nuclear engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention is related to equipment for creation of short-term intense pressure pulses and may be used for testing of structural material samples for resistance to action of shock waves of nuclear explosion (NE), in particular X-ray radiation (XR). Method for imitation of thermomechanical action of NE XR at samples of structural materials includes fixation of exploded foil to tested sample, discharge of electric current pulse that results in foil explosion, and resulting loading of sample by mechanical pressure pulse from explosive shock wave. Besides previously thickness is identified for layer of loaded sample substance sublimated in nature process, and then it is removed from the surface by any of available methods. Then uneven heating is carried out in sample thickness. ^ EFFECT: provision of possibility to bring reproduced conditions to nature condition of tested sample under thermomechanical action of NE XR. ^ 4 dwg
