On the Propagation of Blast Wave in Earth′s Atmosphere: Adiabatic and Isothermal Flow

Adiabatic and isothermal propagations of spherical blast wave produced due to a nuclear explosion have been studied using the Energy hypothesis of Thomas, in the nonuniform atmosphere of the earth. The explosion is considered at different heights. Entropy production is also calculated along with the...
