Funny how every second person is a supposed expert on bombs.. Why is everyone so obsessed with being viewed as an authority..
-
@trooper... it's the pressure shock wave caused by the explosion that is devastating
heat damage would be minor in this case
-
I'm not grasping the physics of this, is it the pressure shock wave that's devastating or the actual explosion, can some one elaborate?
-
@piranha031091 ...That's why they drop these MOFOs from aircraft. These things are the most powerful non-nuclear ordinace in existance.
-
@austinton2 The explosion sucks in all the oxygen to where the fuel is, (like a supernova) then explodes.
-
Why do they always add fake sounds to the explosion?
-
@jojovossy Then it would be a lot easier to use conventional explosives than to carry both the explosives and the oxygen!
-
@piranha031091 his hands...
-
I wonder if I could hunt wabbits with these.......
-
Pardon me... I farted.

You're getting a fuel air deflagration, aka fireball, not a true detonation. You might be getting a fast deflagration, which may visibly appear as a fraction of a second, but unless you're using a highly sensitive epoxide or alkyl nitrate fuel, you're not getting a true fuel air explosion. In a true FAE, the fuel cloud actually detonates, which creates a very different blast effect- vastly more powerful than a fast deflagration.

Standard hydrocarbons will not be nearly sensitive enough to undergo detonation. You'll need a sensitizer such as isopropyl nitrate. Black powder would be a terrible burster, as its not brisant enough to create a fine fuel dispersion. You need a high explosive initiator to provide the original shock. Black powder will not suffice.
