Pyroclastic flow is one of the most destructive eruptive phenomena and has kept scientists from making direct measurements of its physical properties. We constructed two types of penetrators to measure the temperature, over pressure and particle velocity of a pyroclastic surge accompanied by a pyroclastic-flow eruption. The penetrator-type thermometer measures temperature and duration of a pyroclastic surge based on the change in state of several kinds of metals and thermodyes which melt at specific temperatures during volcanic events. The penetrator-type blastmeter estimates the explosion energy and particle velocity of a pyroclastic surge on the basis of the deformation of a thin metal plate. A helicopter of the Japanese Self Defense Force was used to drop 12 penetrators from a height of 30-45m at 5 points on Unzen Volcano in Kyushu, Japan, most of which landed erect. Measurements made with this type of penetrator enable us to obtain certain physical properties of pyroclastic surges in dangerous areas during explosive eruptions.
