Pression et explosion : comment un canon transforme le maïs en une explosion de rue

追加: 2026-05-17

When corn kernels are heated under high pressure (150 psi) in a sealed container, the water inside each kernel turns to steam and expands dramatically; when the pressure is suddenly released by opening the container, the steam expands rapidly, causing the kernel's hull to burst outward in a synchronized explosion, demonstrating how controlled pressure and rapid decompression can transform solid materials through thermal expansion.
