Abstract

We perform the optimization of the barrel nozzle of a powder water cannon. The nozzle profile is specified, which makes it possible to obtain impulsive water jets with the required velocities for the minimum pressure inside the installation. The stress-strain state is analyzed both for the actual experimental device and in the case of its optimal geometry. The numerical calculations are carried out according to the maximum distribution of the pressure of water upon the barrel obtained by using the Godunov method, which enables us to construct a lighter mobile and more powerful device. © Springer Science+Business Media, Inc. 2006.
