An explosive model has recently been designed and added to MACH2 to enable that code to be used as a tool for studying explosive magnetic flux compression generators. This report describes this model and gives examples of its use in both one- and two-dimensional simulations. A description of the model is given and one-dimensional simulations will be discussed. Also, we show examples of two-dimensional simulations. Appendices contain input decks for the one- and two-dimensional simulations and a listing of the modifications made to MACH2 for this purpose
