Finally, it is possible to examine appros?iroately the changes o:' the

bination of acoustic waves du = o dr ? ?, do = do (with r;~ 3) and

3ucsh agreement is the result of the small ratio of the speed to the
speed of oomid ul/o = 3/3 in the current which is not runaing to the wall,
which leads to a o3 seneas of the percussion rave to the acoustic and, in
particulae, to a small change of entropy (4). It is curious that this takes
place with a significant change of the pressure of almost 2.5 times. (it can
be shown that with any po3ytswpie index, including r ? 1, the entropy changes
very little i the reflection of the detonation wave.)
This eirembtnnoo with r m 3 makes it very simple to solve i:..e problem
of the reflection of a detonation wave, using the acoustic bond U and g.

solution which considers the change of the ortropy, the reflected wave would
