The naturally ageing AP/HTPB base bleed propellant samples have been stored in a sealed plastic bag at room temperature(5-25 ℃) for more than 20 years. The experimental DSC results were obtained by placing samples(each about 1.5 mg) in a sealed pan under non-isothermal condition under different heating rates, 5.0, 10.0, 15.0, 20.0 and 30.0 ℃·min^(-1). The activation energy and pre-exponential factor were estimated based on the relationship between the exothermic peak temperature and the heating rate by Ozawa and Kissinger methods, respectively. The decomposition kinetic parameters is lower the values under laboratorial aging condition.展开更多

The fluid dynamics process is described by Euler Equation in 2-D axisymmetric coordinate. The numerical method is based on least-square gridless method,and the inviscid flux is calculated by multi-component HLLC( Harten-Lax-van Leer-Contact) scheme,and a H2-CO reaction mechanism involving 9 species and 11 reactions is used. The computations are performed for the full projectile configuration of Ma = 1. 5,2,and 3. The hot air injection cases and inert cases are simulated for comparison. The numerical results show that due to the combustion in the weak region,the recirculation zone enlarges and moves downstream,the base pressure increases and the total drag force coefficient decreases. At Ma = 3. 0,the rear stagnation point shifts downstream approximate 0. 26 caliber,and the base pressure increases about 53. 4%,and the total drag force coefficient decreases to 0. 182 which agrees well with the trajectory model prediction. Due to neglecting the effects of viscosity and turbulence,there exists a certain difference at Ma = 1. 5,2. 0.展开更多
