4. How do you calculate the cloud's combustion energy?
In order to use the abacus to estimate the overpressure at a given distance, it is necessary to know the cloud's combustion energy (since this is included in the abscissa term of the abacus). This energy, E, is determined as follows
From cloud mass :
From cloud volume :
