Abstract:
The most widely used experimental method for determination of dynamic characteristics of gun propellant combustion is burning a specific amount of a propellant in a closed chamber (vessel) and measuring the resulting pressure versus time profile. The aim of this work is to conduct experimental investigations at different conditions of propellant ignition, which permit to verify the view on legitimacy of standard conditions of closed-vessel tests. This paper considers first of all the influence of conditions of propellant ignition during closed-vessel tests on possible deviations in determination of the burning rate. For this purpose, experimental tests of a fine-grained, single-base propellant are carried out in a conventional closed vessel and a micro-closed vessel, applying different ignition methods for the same loading density. The results of experimental tests and calculations show significant influence of the ignition system type used on determined values of the burning rate and other dynamic characteristics of propellant combustion, such as dynamic vivacity, absolute quickness, and relative quickness.
