One way to convey the occurrence of explosion under water and its effects on the structures is to use coning shock tube. By using a small explosive, this tube causes high pressure. In this essay, by suing LS-DYNA code, the explosion of a subsidiary amount of an explosive in the conning shock tube has been scrutinized. A numerical simulation has been done by using the MMALE (Multi Material Arbitrary Eulerain Lagrangian) solving method. To verify the validity of the selected method in software, first, the empirical tests performed by LeBlanc and Shukla is simulated. After assuring of the precision of the results, simulation of the desired problem is performed. In this research, first, the effect of the angel of the cone's head in the caused pressure inside the tube has been checked. Then, the operation of shock tubes with different lengths is checked. At the end, with the conversion of the weight of explosive, the study of the results and the reasons of the conversions in each parameter, a bond for the equivalent mass for all the shock tubes with different angels is represented and the bond for the present theory has been revised.
