Abstract
Once the burning rate as a function of initial temperature has been measure d for a particular material, it is often desirable to report its burning ra te temperature sensitivity as a single value that can then be used in other applications. A few of the obstacles encountered when making the determina tion of burning rate temperature sensitivity, sigma(p), are examined. Burni ng rate temperature sensitivity was evaluated for the neat ingredients AP, HMX, RDX, ADN, CL-20, and HNF.
