Electrohydraulic Shock Wave Generation is an energy conversion process. Electrical energy stored at high voltage in a capacitor is discharged through a set of electrodes under water. The arc heats a small volume of water to a high temperature and pressure in the shock regime. This paper analyzes the relationship of the significant variables from an energy conversion perspective. The expanding pressure wave is able to fracture rock, kidney stones (lithotripsy), and resin bonded sand cores in castings. Experimental results are presented.
