Introduction

Figure 41-1 Model

When a metal cone is explosively collapsed onto its axis, a high-velocity rod of molten metal, the jet, is ejected out of
the open end of the cone. The cone is called a liner and is typically made of copper. The jet has a mass approximately
20 percent of the cone mass, and elongates rapidly due to its high velocity gradient. This molten rod is followed by
the rest of the mass of the collapsed cone, the slug. Typical shaped charges have liner slope angles of less than 42
degrees ensuring the development of a jet; with jet velocities ranging from 3000 to 8000 m/s. A typical construction
of a shaped charge is shown in Figure 41-2.

Figure 41-2 Typical Construction of Shaped Charge


CHAPTER 41 659
Shaped Charge Penetrating Two Plates

An example simulation of shaped charge formation is carried out to demonstrate the ability of SOL 700 to perform
such a simulation. A simplified axisymmetric model of explosives and a copper liner is created in a finite volume Euler
mesh. Explosive are detonated starting from a point on the axis of symmetry at the end of the explosives. The
simulation is carried out for 60 s after detonation of the explosives. The jet is formed and penetrates two thick plates.
See Figure 41-3 for the model layout.

Figure 41-3 SOL 700 Model Setup

Typical shaped charges are axisymmetric. However, aiming at higher velocity, 3-D designs are targeted. 3-D
simulation of shaped charge formation would be necessary to avoid excessive experimental work. SOL 700 has full
abilities to perform such a 3-D simulation.

Solution Requirements
SOL 700 Model
The model is simplified as shown in Figure 41-3. The aluminum casting is replaced with a rigid body.

Detonation is assumed to start at a point on the axis at the rear end of the explosives. The liner shape is slightly
simplified as shown in the figure. The retaining ring is assumed rigid and is modeled as a wall boundary for the Euler
Mesh (BARRIER). SI units are used in this example.

FEM Solution
A. Euler Mesh and Liner:
A triangular prismatic Finite Volume Euler mesh is used with head angle of 5 degrees as shown in Figure 41-4. A very
fine mesh is used to accurately simulate the behavior of the extremely thin liner. The liner is placed in this Euler mesh.
Symmetry conditions (closed boundary, default Euler boundary condition) are imposed on the two rectangular faces
of the prism to create an axisymmetric behavior.

Figure 41-4 Euler Mesh

The liner material pressure – density relationship is modeled with EOSPOL model. The liner is made of copper and
the constants are taken as follows:

a1 1.43E11 N/m2
a2 0.839E11 N/m2
a3 2.16E9 N/m2

b1 0.0
b2 0.0
b3 0.0

Material yield strength is modeled with a Johnson-Cook yield model. The constants are taken as follows:

A 1.2E8 N/m2
B 1.43E9 N/m2
C 0.0
n 0.5

It is very easy to define the shape and position of the liner by using the method of geometrical regions when creating
the initial conditions of the liner material.

B. Casting and Retaining Ring:


The casting is assumed to be rigid. It is modeled by the default Eulerian boundary condition (closed boundary). The
retaining ring is also assumed to be rigid and is modeled by a barrier.

C. Plates:
Two thick plates are placed in this Euler mesh. Plate material is defined as steel:
