Effect of acceleration on agglomeration of aluminum particles during combustion of composite solid propellants
S. A. Rashkovskiy Institute for Problems in Mechanics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, 119526
Abstract:
The effect of the normal acceleration ($g$-load) on formation of agglomerates and their distribution function is examined within the framework of the statistical model of aluminum agglomeration. A parametric study of aluminum agglomeration with different values of normal $g$-loads is performed. The theory developed predicts a new effect, namely, a nonmonotonic dependence of the mean-mass size of agglomerates leaving the burning surface on the magnitude of normal $g$-loads: with increasing $g$-load, the mean-mass size of agglomerates can increase if the $g$-loads are low or moderate and decrease if the $g$-loads are high; in the latter case, the size distribution of agglomerates becomes less spread and more stable.
Keywords:
composite propellant, combustion, aluminum agglomeration, statistical simulation, Monte Carlo method, distribution function, mean-mass size.
