Combustion, Explosion, and Shock Waves Aims and scope

Abstract

This paper discusses the results of experiments on the underwater combustion of ballistite propellant in a centrifugal force field where the gasification front moves in the direction of acceleration. The necessary conditions for the combustion were provided using a mobile localizer of the combustion zone, which was a shell of a heat-resistant material put on the test sample of the propellant.
