Abstract
[ENG] Among all energetic materials, the combustion of granulated, composite AP/HTPB and double-base solid propellants are studied in thesis. The improvement on the design and safety in industrial processes which use solid propellants are of major importance in industry of energetic materials. Unexpected detonation of granular solid propellants is a key safety issue. Moreover, ignition and subsequent combustion of granular solid propellants are also complex mechanisms of high importance in the manufacturing process of many energetic materials, not only because already mentioned safety issues, but also in due in the design of propulsion systems. Therefore, and in order to properly understand this problem, a model for the characterisation of the detonation process of granular solid propellants under shock tube conditions is developed. To be able to reach this objective, a two-phase model, which considers the conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy and constitutive relations of ...
