Propellants deflagration

At this limiting condition, the gas-phase deflagration becomes irrelevant to the solid-propellant deflagration. Either equation (6) or (29) can now... 

The theoretical model and numerical method outlined in the above sections were implemented to study steady-state combustion of nitramine monopropellants [33.34], laser-induced ignition of RDX [39,40], and steady-state combustion of nitramine/GAP pseudo-propellants [37-39]. The analyses were carried out over a broad range of operating conditions. Various important burning and ignition characteristics were investigated systematically, with emphasis placed on the detailed flame structure and the effect of the subsurface two-phase layer on propellant deflagration. 

Within the macroscopic postulates of the theory detonations in condensed phases are generally considered to be quantitatively well defined, while deflagrations are less determinable because of their greater dependence on temporal and spatial factors. For example, in propellant deflagrations, where the reaction rates are strongly dependent on the diffusion of reactants to an interface, propagation velocities may be down to centimeters per second or less, or as high as meters per second.
