Abstract
The ice-breaking process of the double-layer charge at a depth of 150 cm underwater is simulated by LS-DYNA. This paper analyzes the load type, shock wave pressure characteristics and propagation behavior of the double-layer charge during underwater explosion. By analyzing the impact of the shock wave pressure in the water under different charge intervals and time intervals on the shock wave pressure of the double charge, it is concluded that the peak pressure of the double charge explosion shock wave is jointly determined by the double charge. In this range, the second peak pressure value of the drug is greater than the pressure value of the first peak of the drug, and the attenuation is slow; the delay time of the upper charge has little effect on the peak pressure value of the shock wave in the water; the delay time is higher than that of the lower charge Initiation, at the same position, the total pressure peak of the shock wave formed by the delay of the upper charge is larger.
