Calculating generic/non-specific explosions?

Often times in fiction, an attack creates an explosion. It might be a beam of "energy" or something, & create an explosion, but finding the type of energy used to create the beam &/or explosion may be difficult.

Similarly, sometimes in explosion, machinery may explode, & a lot of machinery can be difficult to identify.

Still, even if we don't know if it's pyrotechnics, electric, nuclear, or some type of "energy" or just some robot or generator exploding.... Or don't even have a statement of how hot the explosion is from the fiction....

Aren't there means of means calculating an explosion's yield? Especially if you have the timeframe & the diameter or radius of it?
 
No problem. I will close this then.
