Abstract
As a new method for generating strong underwater shock waves with rapid repetition frequency, the use of underwater electrical-wire explosion (UEWE) to drive insensitive energetic materials has attracted increasing research attention in recent years. Accordingly, equipment based on this new method have been developed. The ability to measure the stress produced by an UEWE on a device plays a very important role in optimizing the device performance. However, in conventional stress measurements, the spatial electromagnetic interference (EMI) produced by the discharge can affect the measurement accuracy or even damage the experimental instruments. In this study, a novel system for measuring stress in a strong electromagnetic field, based on a piezoelectric film and a conditioning circuit, was debugged and evaluated. Shielding was used to eliminate the intense EMI due to the strong electromagnetic field. Our simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the stress generated can be quickly determined by measuring the output voltage of the conditioning circuit. The new system can be used to measure the stress at the fluid–solid interface under a strong electromagnetic field environment.
