description Precise control of casting velocity and effective throwing kinetic energy conversion efficiency in blasting engineering are challenges. To provide a theoretical basis and reference for the implementation plan and fine construction of the cast blasting project, we study the problems of casting velocity and energy consumption ratio of broken rock under the impact load of explosions in this manuscript. The calculation methods of casting velocity and throwing energy of broken rock under two blasting modes of spherical charge and cylindrical charge are established by using the theory of dimensional analysis and rock breaking by blasting. A large number of model tests are carried out by using high-speed photography. The results indicate that the casting velocity of broken rock after explosive initiation has two evident stages: instantaneous acceleration to a certain value and subsequent fluctuation; the velocity presents an ordinary distribution law with the step height, and the fitting correlation of high-speed photography results is more than 91%. With the minimum burden increasing from 0.12 m to 0.2 m, the energy consumption decreases from 1306.88 J to 747.49 J and the proportion of energy consumption decreases from 14.77% to 8.45%.
