Abstract

Experiments in a constant-volume reactor and in a model rocket combustor demonstrated the possibility of convective burning of mixtures of water with PAP-2 flaky aluminum powder with the formation of alumina and hydrogen. It was shown that the porosity of the mixture is an important factor determining the mode of its burning. The burning occurred at a pressure of several hundred atmospheres in the convective mode.
