Development of Subscale Fast Cookoff Test (PREPRINT)

Abstract

This paper presents a report on the design and development of a controlled heat flux combustor in support of a larger task aimed at the development of a sub-scale alternate test protocol to the external fire test currently required for final hazards classification (HC) of an ordnance system. The specific goal of this part of the task was to design a thermal stimulus that could be controlled and still deliver the flux levels encountered in a liquid fuel fire of the type related to transportation and storage.
