Combustion of condensed systems consisting of HMX and a binder capable of self-sustained combustion

Regression fronts in random sphere packs: Application to composite solid propellant burning rate

“…which is used in the Beckstead model [2] but also in Russia under the ''geometrical model" denomination [9,10]. Some variants also consider [10,11]:…”

Combustion of systems containing linear nitramines

“…It is obvious that the addition of RDX to the powder or the replacement of NGC by DNP decreases the surface temperature and the temperature gradient near the surface. This, as in the case of HMX [8,11,12], (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) leads to a decrease in the burning rate. For all samples, the heat supply from the smoke-gas zone is 10-15%, i.e., the leading stage of combustion is in the c-phase.…”

“…TNH and DNP (10-40%) were added to the powder in proportion instead of all compo- nents. The addition of TNH, as well as RDX [8] and HMX [8,11,12], reduces the burning rate (Table 3), which decreases monotonically with increase in its content in the powder. For example, at p = 10 MPa, Z = 0.76 for a sample with 20% TNH, Z = 0.61 for a sample with 30% TNH, and Z = 0.52 for a sample with 40% TNH [here and below, the effect of the additive on the burning rate is evaluated by the quantity Z = u add /u 0 , where u add and u 0 are the burning rates of the sample with the additive (TNH in this case) and without it, respectively].…”

“…Therefore, the mechanism of their combustion [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] and the combustion of mixtures containing these nitramines [6,[9][10][11][12] have been thoroughly studied. At the same time, the combustion of linear nitramines and compositions based on them has received little study although some of them have long been known [13].…”
