Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

An integral equation is obtained for the nonsteady-state combustion velocity of a powder. It is shown that the effect of a variable tangential stream of gases on the rate of burning (nonsteady-state erosion) can be calculated in a similar way as for the change of pressure. The solution of the equation in linear approximation is considered (rate of burning differs slightly from steady-state).
