Abstract :
This paper presents the results of study on the explosion of Al and W wires in water under various conditions, i.e., under the conditions of varying current rise time and conductor radius. For MHD simulation, use is made of different models of conduction. Based on comparison between experimental and numerical results, it is concluded that these models ensure adequate interpretation of experimental results.
