New Visualization and Measurement Techniques for Ballistic Processes and Dynamic Flows

Abstract

A laboratory technique for accelerating a measuring probe in a ballistic experiment was used to perform a series of experiments with high-speed video recording of the process from the start of movement of the measuring probe and electric wire in the launching device to the end of movement of the probe in the target. Advantages of the developed probing technique are discussed. The results of video recording of the dynamic gas flow in the launching device and the evolution of the electric wire shape were used to determine conditions and technical solutions that provide continuous recording of the movement parameters of the measuring probe on the flight path and in the target medium.
