Leishear suggests that it can ignite explosive gas, too, a conjecture that I find convincing, having known that a gas bubble within a liquid medium, when it collapses during the passage of shock waves, will reach an extreme temperature due to adiabatic compression. Physicists have measured, e.g., its light emission.
Using the split Hopkinson pressure-bar (SHPB) nearly adiabatic compression tests are conducted in the intermediate strain-rate regime ranging from 1000 [s.sup.-1] to 2000 [s.sup.-1].
For calculation purposes it is accepted that during initial compression in individual volume parts, adiabatic compression and isochoric heat transfer (5) can be expressed as:
For the assessment of the exergy losses in the component parts of the refrigerating system, it is needed Figure 1, where the notations indicate: [T.sub.c]--condensation temperature, To vaporization temperature, 2r--vapor state after adiabatic compression, 2ir--vapor state after irreversible compression.
