Study of equation of state and equilibrium mixtures

ORAL

Abstract

We look at progress made in high explosive equation of state modeling at LANL. We present results on chemical equilibrium solvers used to study the evolution of a products equation of state. We will also present results for systematically improving the EOS parameters and models. In particular we look at polar molecules and their mixtures including ammonia and water systems.
