Abstract

The dispersion pattern of a near miss neutralizer has a great effect on the disablement of a threatening projectile. This study numerically investigated the dispersion pattern of cylindrical tungsten impactors by an explosion in the near miss neutralizer. The mass and shape of the explosive were considered as influencing factors on the dispersion pattern. The explosives were set using two shape models: a parallel shape with the same upper and lower thicknesses and a tapered shape with different upper and lower thicknesses. In the simulation results, the dispersed impactors formed a ring-shaped pattern on a two-dimensional plane in an arbitrary space. In addition, the fire net area increased with the explosive mass when the explosive shapes were identical. In particular, the tapered shape explosive formed a larger fire net area than the parallel shape explosive. Based on the analysis of the fire net area along with the dispersion density, both the explosive mass and shape representing the physical characteristics should be considered for controlling the dispersion pattern of impactors in a near miss neutralizer.

Near miss 방식 대응체의 충격자 분산 패턴은 위협체의 무력화에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 near miss 방식 대응체의 원통형 텅스텐 충격자가 폭발에 의하여 분산될 경우 그 패턴을 수치해석적으로 분석하였다. 폭약의 질량과 형상을 충격자의 분산 패턴에 영향을 미치는 인자로 고려하였으며 두 가지 형상 모델 즉, 상부와 하부가 동일한 두께를 갖는 평행 형상과 상부 및 하부 두께가 각기 다른 테이퍼 형상으로 설정하였다. 해석 결과, 분산된 충격자는 임의 공간의 2 차원 평면상에서 고리 모양을 형성하였으며 폭약 형태가 동일한 경우 폭약 질량이 증가함에 따라 화망 면적은 증가하고, 아울러 테이퍼 형상 폭약의 경우, 평행 형상의 폭약에 비해 큰 화망 면적이 형성됨을 확인하였다. 화망 면적과 충격자 분산 밀도 평가를 바탕으로 near miss 방식 대응체의 충격자 분산 패턴 제어를 위해서는 물리적 특성, 즉 폭약의 질량뿐 만 아니라 형상 또한 주요 설계 요소가 됨을 알 수 있었다.
