Influence of the Orientation of a Discharge Channel in Water on the Kinematics of Plate Deflection

Аннотация

The influence of orientation of a discharge channel in water and the length of a cylindrical discharge chamber on the kinematic characteristics of the maximum deflection of plates during molding into an open ring matrix have been studied experimentally. The optical method is used to measure the deflection of the plate deformed by pressure waves generated by an electric discharge in water. No significant effect of the discharge channel orientation and relative length of the cylindrical discharge chamber on the plate deflection is detected.
