Calculation method of determining efficiency of traditional explosive agents.
Based on the Zeldovich hydrodynamic model [1] developed for stationary and equilibrium detonation processes the author reveals possible definitions, which are not met in the literature, of interpretations of action and efficiency of combat explosives [2]. With the help of those definitions the author presents possible decomposition of action and efficiency functions of a combat charge loaded with any HE explosive in which an intermediate argument is a function of the inner energy variation within a confined by the detonation wave front volume.
