| Summary: | and DIANA RWS 34, are analyzed to examine the behind the projectile. Thermodynamic steady flow Busemann flow equations also account for gas velocity commercially available airgun technologies, and to determine the advantages that may be achieved using a experimentally that a increasing with gas outgun from a channel if the Mach 1 . porous barrel can allow pneumatic airgun projectiles porous barrel can serve as a supersonic nozzle. porous barrel. A water analogy experiment shows that a porous, constant area barrel are limited to exit pressure is. Various virgins, such as the Crosman 760 projectile, no matter how , high the reservoir gas relations indicate that pneumatic virgins using a non- The purpose of this study is to show theoretically and ics. to reach velocities in excess of Mach 1 of the gas velocities of Mach l of the gas immediately behind the velocity before the outgun is greater than or equal to |
