Abstract
The paper presents the results of processing the experimental data available in the literature on the surface temperature and burning rate of double-base propellants, RDX and HMX. The interrelation between the burning rate and surface temperature for them is represented in the form of a single, unambiguous, and unified correlation independent of the initial temperature of the sample. For HMX, such a correlation takes a form (SD = 0.06) or U = 124exp(−2550/Ts) where [U] = cm/s and [Ts] = °C and, conversely, Ts = 516 + 72lnU (SD = 7.2) valid for the ranges of burning rates 0.05 < U < 1.0 cm/s and surface temperatures 360 < Ts < 515°C. The derived correlations U(Ts) allow estimation of the temperature at individual points on the front of the transverse wave based on the local values of the burning rate in these points.
