OPTIMUM DISTRIBUTION OF METAL PARTICLES IN THE SOLID-PROPELLANT CHARGE IN THE APPROXIMATION OF A ONE-DIMENSIONAL FLOW FIELD IN A CYLINDRICAL CHANNEL

A study has been made of ways of optimum distribution of particles of dispersed metal in the solid-propellant charge with a cylindrical central channel, which is firmly fastened to the case. The efficiency of combustion of this metal has been analyzed. Consideration has been given to the influence of the dynamic nonequilibrium of two-phase flow on the optimum distribution of metal particles in the indicated charge in the approximation of one-dimensionality of the flow field.
