Abstract
A detonation wave pressure harnessing system includes a detonator tube that generates a detonation wave. The detonation wave produces a pressure in a coupling chamber that is substantially sealed when the detonation wave is generated. An interface between the coupling chamber and a target converts the pressure into a force that is applied to the target. The system includes an inflow valve assembly and an outflow valve assembly and a control system that controls the outflow valve assembly.
Claims1
A detonation wave pressure harnessing system, comprising:
- a detonator tube that generates a detonation wave;
- a coupling chamber, said coupling chamber being substantially sealed when said detonation wave is generated thereby containing a pressure produced by said detonation wave;
- an interface between said coupling chamber and a target, said interface converting said pressure into a force that is applied to said target;
- an inflow valve assembly;
- an outflow valve assembly;
- and
- a control system that controls the outflow valve assembly.
