A series of closed bomb combustion tests were conducted on several very high burning rate (VHBR) propellants in which, in addition to the standard pressure measurements, the thrust produced by a burning propellant column was measured using a dynamic force gage located at the end of the propellant column. The results indicate that in several instances the total force imparted to the force gage substantially exceeded that due to the gas pressure alone. The difference is ascribed to the thrust or impulse resulting from very high DD/j FORM AN 73 1473 EDITION OF 1 NOV 65 IS OBSOLETE UNCLASSIFIED SECURITY CLASSIFICATION OF THIS PAGE (When Data Entered)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
