A two-stage light gas gun driven by gaseous detonation was newly constructed, which can make up for the disadvantages of the insufficient driving capability of high-pressure gas and the constraints of gunpowder. The performance of the gas gun was investigated through experiments and a quasi-one-dimensional modeling of it was also developed and described in detail. The model accounts for the friction and heat transfer to the tube wall for gases by adding a source term. An improved model has been established to consider the inertial loads in the piston or projectile and model the friction force with the tube wall. Besides, the effects of pump tube pressure on the performance of the gas gun are also investigated numerically. Simulations of the pressure histories in the pump tube and the piston and projectile velocities were conducted. A good agreement was observed between the computational predictions and experimental results. The results showed that the friction between the piston and wall had only small influence on the piston velocity. The proposed numerical approach is suitable for the development of two-stage light gas guns and tests of the operating conditions.

Abstract This paper presents experimental comparison of two machine crushing technologies: one-stage and two-stage. The study was carried on a model double-toggle jaw crusher which allows crushing forces, energy and toggle displacement to be measured. The main aim of the work was to determine the energy consumption of crushing process assuming a given level of fragmentation. Studies were performed on three rocks: granite “Strzegom”, limestone “Morawica” and sandstone “Mucharz”. The material tested had a cubic shape and average dimension of 90 mm. One-stage crushing was carried out for outlet slot er = 11 mm, and two-stage crushing for er = 24 mm and 11 mm. In the tests special design of variable profile moving jaw was used and fixed jaw was flat. The analysis of the results shows that taking into account energy consumption, it is better to use two-stage crushing process. For given materials energy consumption in the two-stage crushing process was reduced by 30%.

We are studying the crystallization and annealing behavior of high performance polymers, like poly(p-pheny1ene sulfide) PPS, and poly-(etheretherketone), PEEK. Our purpose is to determine whether PPS, which is similar in many ways to PEEK, undergoes reorganization during annealing. In an effort to address the issue of reorganization, we are studying solution grown single crystals of PPS as model materials.Observation of solution grown PPS crystals has been reported. Even from dilute solution, embrionic spherulites and aggregates were formed. We observe that these morphologies result when solutions containing uncrystallized polymer are cooled. To obtain samples of uniform single crystals, we have used two-stage self seeding and solution replacement techniques.
