Response of Three Types of Transient Combustion Models to Gun Pressurization.

Abstract

Three types of models for transient solid propellant combustion are applied under an imposed pressure history of a 105 mm tank gun. The three types are: (1) dp/dt dependence, (2) Quasi Steady Heat Feedback One Dimensional (QSHOD), and (3) Zeldovich. Each predicts a qualitatively different response for the same propellant thermal and thermodynamic properties under the same imposed pressure history. (Author)
