The Effects of Small Changes in the Input Data on the Determination of Closed-Bomb Burning Rates and Surface Area

Abstract

In order to ascertain the effects of small changes in the input data on the determination of closed-bomb burning rates, a series of related computer programs was developed. The computer programs allow a qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the effects of varying thermodynamic properties and, if desired, the propellant grain dimensions. Program listings and sample runs are included, along with Fortran listings of common form functions.... Closed bomb tests, Burning rate, Interior ballistics.
