Abstract The user of delay detonators require a number as great as possible of equidistant time steps. In the case of greater time steps this can lead to the danger of overlapping of burning times between two following time steps. To avoid this, a calculation method is presented for the correction of mean combustion periods that surely eliminates the overlapping of burning times. For very precisely working delay detonators an increase in the number of time steps is possible.
