Jsefcik4958 Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 Sup guys im curious do tube sizes and thickness makes a difference? I mean if you have a firework in a thicktube vs thin will the thing be louder? Id assume yes more containment more energy
PhoenixRising Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 (edited) If you're a really heavy person, "tub size" can make a difference. Wouldn't wanna get stuck. The only energy containment you should be worried about is that bean burrito you ate earlier. Edited October 26, 2018 by PhoenixRising
NeighborJ Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 Assuming you are asking about salutes the answer is yes snd no. The proper amount of confinement will yield the loudest bang. Often flash is used because the manufacturer wants to get the biggest bang with the least amount of reinforcement for cost savings. It all depends on what your goals are.
memo Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 ask any woman that will tell you the truth, the size of your tube does matter 2
Jsefcik4958 Posted October 27, 2018 Author Posted October 27, 2018 Im talking some regular mortars ive bought over the years, I had some i opened up the package and said this was a waste i lit one off and it shook the ground and said to myself how do they pack almost nothing with such a nasty punch , the cardboard ball wasnt to thick but still pretty tough,and it weighed a semi decent amount for such a small ball, so thats why im asking
NeighborJ Posted October 27, 2018 Posted October 27, 2018 Yeah, most of the bang in commercial ball shell salutes have minimal confinement, the biggest reason they have what little robustness they do have is to protect the contents of the shell from the lift charge. Once a comp reaches the point of deflag no additional confinement is required. The only benefit of a thicker casing comes from a quicker initiation time. Most high energy comps have a minimal difference between thich and thin cases.
