Modeling of controlled combustion of high-energetic materials on structured catalysts

A mathematical model of combustion of high-energetic materials on structured catalysts is developed. Numerical studies are performed for combustion of a typical material: aminoguanidine nitrate. An increase in catalytic activity, as well as an increase in the thermal conductivity of the catalyst, is found to expand the range of real-time controlling of the burning rate of the condensed substance.
