Physics of Combustion of New Oxidizer/Polymer Mixtures

Abstract

Combustion of mixtures of CL-20 (hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane - HNIW) with thermoplastics BAMO-AMMO, and GAP, and mixtures of GAP/HMX and (BAMO-ANMO)/HMX is investigated by methods of thermocouple technique in a bomb of constant pressure at sample temperature and pressure variations. The main burning wave parameters are determined. Macrokinetics of gasifications are evaluated and positions of burning rate control stages are established. Temperature and pressure sensitivities of burning rates and surface temperatures were found, and criteria of stable combustion were estimated. Burning rate response functions to oscillatory pressure in linear and nonlinear approximations were found, and influence of elevated pulsating pressures was estimated.
