Abstract
An electrical column explosion of a copper and graphite powder mixture was investigated and one possible model was established, in which suc h a powder mixture is anisotropically heated by an electric current du e to the difference in resistivities of the constituents. One of the c onstituents of the powder mixture reaches its boiling point at a short er time, thus leading to the column explosion.
