J-W-L Parameters for High Explosives

Submitted by bdmmech on

Hi !!! all

I really struglling to get the JWL and Lee Traver EOS parameters for RDX .

If anybody can help seriously I will be highly obliged. Atlest the EOS parameters of Comp-A5 or PBX 9604 having higher percentage of RDX (98.5 % and 96% respectively)  will  be sufficient.

I don't have the exact numbers for RDX at hand.  However, C4 contains 91% RDX and should have detonation characteristics similar to that of RDX.  Please see the paper that I've attached to your post for more details.
