Table 3 Eruption description
| Â | Max. measured vapor velocity (m/s) | Max. measured vapor height (m) | Max measured ball velocity (m/s) | Max measured ball height (m)a | Explosion description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Exp 9 (vertical) | 60 (n = 2) | 6.3 | 12.2–15.3 (n = 5) | 9.4 | Vapor jet narrow vertical explosion, most balls went height and landed close to barrel, slight asymmetric distribution (northeast) |
Exp12 (24°) | 28.3 (n = 3) | 5.1 | 10.6–21.7 (n = 7) | 4.5 | Fanned vapor jet, balls landed farther from barrel strongly asymmetric distribution (northeast) |
