To assess the jet strength, the penetration of PSJ was compared with empirical values, and the results show that the momentum flux ratio of PSJ for a capacitance of 0.96, 1.6, and 3 μF was approximately equal to 0.6, 1.0, and 1.3, respectively. The interaction of PSJ with shock waves was acquired using high-speed shadowgraph imaging.

Under the action of PSJ, the strength of the shock was notably weakened, and the near-wall part of the shock was entirely eliminated.
