Title
A CFD investigation of thermal hot spots in the ignition process of DEM based three-dimensional propellant beds
Title Supplement
Presentation held at the International Symposium on Ballistics 2023
Abstract
Why we care about the ignition process Requirements:
Reproducability from shot to shot for consistent performance.
Depends heavily on igniter design.
Interior ballistic safety.
Pressure waves can be caused by bad igniter design Current challenges.
New ignition charge formulations.
Shorter igniter for tank ammunition Complex ignition phenomena are occuring that we don't understand in much detail!
