Development of commercially useable codes to simulate aluminized propellant combustion, and related issues
Award Year / Program / Phase:
2006 / STTR / Phase I
Agency / Branch:
DOD / USAF
Research Institution:
UNIV. OF ILLINOIS
Principal Investigator:
John Buckmaster, Principal Investigator
Award Amount:
$100,000.00
RI Contact:
William Dick
Abstract:
We propose to examine the necessary ingredients for the development of marketable codes which will: model the morphology of heterogeneous propellants (a packing code); calculate the thermal and mechancial properties of such a morphology or pack; simulate the combustion of the pack; predict the… More

Abstract:
We propose to develop marketable codes which will: model the morphology of heterogeneous propellants (a packing code); calculate the thermal and mechanical properties of such a morphology or pack; simulate the combustion of the pack; predict the statistics of aluminum agglomeration on the burning… More
Solid Propellant Shock to Detonation Modeling and Formulation
Award Year / Program / Phase:
2010 / STTR / Phase II
Agency / Branch:
DOD / USAF
Research Institution:
University of Illinois
Principal Investigator:
John Buckmaster, Principal Investigator
Award Amount:
$750,000.00
RI Contact:
William Dick
Abstract:
Determining the hazard classification of new propellant formulations is important for transportation safety and storage concerns. To avoid costly grain redesign and additional testing, a model that adequately predicts the shock sensitivity, including the outcome of the Naval Ordnance Laboratory… More
