EXTINGUISHMENT OF SOLID PROPELLANTS BY RAPID DEPRESSURIZATION

Abstract

The document is a supplement to AD-697 661 and contains the detailed data from the extinguishment tests and complete descriptions of the computer programs referred to in that report. The data from 330 extinguishment tests include the measured pressure versus time histories (in tabular and graphical form), propellant designations and extinguishment parameters. Listings, descriptions and sample cases are included for two computer programs: Program to Calculate Constants in the Characteristic Time Equations for Chemical and Diffusional Processes and Program to Predict Extinguishment and to Calculate Dynamic Burning Properties from Pressure versus Time Data Input 5.
