A Summary of the JANNAF Workshop on Methods for Exchange of Gun Propellant Burning Rate Information

Abstract

A workshop sponsored by the JANNAF Propellant Development and Characterization Subcommittee was held at th U.S. Army Ballistic Research Laboratory, Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD on 21-22 July 1992. The purpose of the workshop was to define methods for exchanging propellant burning rate (BR) information. A recently developed BR reduction code (BRLCB) has been subject to testing, and a major item of progress for the workshop was to accept BRLCB as an interim preferred closed bomb code for data exchange purposes. Additionally, workshop attendees agreed that the input thermochemistry for BRLCB should be calculated for a 0.2 loading density....
