Abstract
A storage apparatus for a munition that contains energetic material uses a water-filled liner to absorb heat applied from the exterior of the storage apparatus. The liner is disposed between the munition and a metal storage container. The liner has segregated compartments which release water into either the storage container or the liner itself. The released water boils and forms steam. A spiral-shaped steam conduit is formed in either the wall of the storage container or in the liner itself. The steam conduit directs the steam away from the munition. The metal storage container includes a pressure relief valve to release the steam pressure. The storage apparatus delays the detonation of the energetic material in the munition.
