description The double-layer charge can effectively improve the axial driving ability of explosives, which shows a considerable engineering application prospect in highly efficient damage warheads. Due to the complex wave structure produced by the overpressure detonation of a double-layer charge, a series of dynamic behaviors inside the shaped charge liner will be affected. By comparing the detonation wave shapes of single-layer charge and double-layer shaped charge structure and the jet shaping parameters of a double-layer shaped charge with different structural parameters, the evolution of detonation wave and the state parameters in the wave system are analyzed in this research. The research found that the double-layer charge with high detonation velocity in the outer layer and low detonation velocity in the inner layer can produce continuous overpressure detonation, which makes the overpressure detonation state be applied efficiently. Meanwhile, this study found that the overpressure detonation field formed by the double-layer charge changes the action law of the traditional single charge on the shaped charge liner. The detonation waveform of the entire charge is controlled by different detonation velocities and detonation energies, and a detonation waveform that matched well with the shaped charge liner is obtained. This study solves the matching relationship between the structure of the overpressure detonation wave system and the properties of a double-layer charge, which is of great value for improving the detonation-driving effect of condensed explosives on surrounding media. The double-layer charge can effectively enhance the potential of explosive charge. It is not only widely used in military fields such as improving the armor-breaking power of shaped charge penetrators and improving the muzzle velocity and concentration of fragments of directional warheads, but also can promote the development of industrial fields such as explosive processing.
