The agglomeration of aluminum during the combustion of solid propellants considerably impacts engine operation and has been widely studied in recent years. The characteristics of aluminum agglomeration in aluminum‐based composite propellants have been studied via experiments and simulations. In this study, the agglomeration process and the characteristics of agglomerated particles are summarized. Agglomeration models and simulation methods have garnered considerable attention because they are not influenced by experimental conditions, are economical, and have minimal restrictions. Therefore, five agglomeration models and four simulation methods are introduced herein to investigate agglom eration in aluminum‐based composite propellants. By analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of these models and methods, deeper agglomeration mechanisms can be explored and new directions for suppressing agglomeration can be identified to mitigate agglomeration issues. These efforts can support and guide the design of solid rocket propellants and the safe operation of rocket engines.
