M-82 Primer Flow Study

Abstract

This report describes a theoretical model and calculational results of the flow in an M-82 percussion primer from the time that the primer propellant is ignited up to 144 microseconds after the gases have exited the vent hole and enveloped an inert propellant charge in the chamber of a gun.
