Effects on an explosions force based on varied gas densities?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the relationship between explosion force and varying gas densities, specifically focusing on environmental gas density. The term "explosion force" is defined as the pressure generated during an explosion. Participants seek a mathematical equation to quantify how explosion force dissipates with changes in gas density, emphasizing the need for clarity in definitions and parameters involved.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of gas laws and pressure dynamics
  • Familiarity with thermodynamics principles
  • Knowledge of fluid dynamics
  • Basic mathematical skills for equation manipulation
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the Ideal Gas Law and its implications on explosion dynamics
  • Study the relationship between pressure and density in fluid dynamics
  • Explore equations governing explosive force, such as the Rankine-Hugoniot relations
  • Investigate the effects of environmental factors on explosion behavior
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, engineers, and researchers involved in explosive materials, safety assessments, and environmental impact studies will benefit from this discussion.

I'm looking for an equation that can give me the the amount an explosions force dissipates based on varied gas densities. I've already posted this in r/AskPhysics, r/AskScience, and r/Physics, and thought posting it here might give it better exposure. Oh, and before someone asks, this isn't homework!

Please define "explosions force".
Which gas density do you mean? Gas of the environment?

Explosions force as in the pressure, and yes, gas of the environment.
