The invention discloses a detonation performance test method for high-energy imploding explosive. The method is characterized in that: a explosive grain with a detonator is placed in a sealed explosion vessel; quasi-static pressure of the explosive, transient temperature of the explosive, detonation velocity of the explosive and gas components of the explosive are detected; a temperature sensor is arranged on the sealed explosion vessel, and is provided for monitoring the temperature changing in the sealed explosion vessel during the test process, a pressure sensor is arranged on the sealed explosion vessel, and is provided for monitoring the pressure changing in the sealed explosion vessel during the test process; the sealed explosion vessel is further connected with a gas collection andtest system, a firing device, a detonation velocity test device, a mechanical vacuum pump and a gas cylinder. The method is applicable for the performance tests of various imploding explosives, and can be provided for performing laboratory quantitative evaluation to the gas expansion working.
