Abstract
A physical explanation for the existence of the threshold of erosive burning is proposed. It is shown that this type of combustion occurs when the thickness of the laminar sublayer in the turbulent boundary layer becomes smaller than the thickness of the laminar combustion zone. In this case, turbulent flame in the gas phase is formed. Relations are obtained linking the critical (threshold) velocity of the blowing flow and the critical Vilyunov number to the properties of the propellant and the gas resulting from propellant decomposition. Simple exponential dependences on the blowing velocity are found for the burning rate. The simplest representation of the erosive burning rate is obtained using the Bulgakov-Lipanov number, whose threshold value is equal to unity. A new mechanism for the occurrence of negative erosion is proposed, according to which the burning rate decreases during blowing because the boundary layer is displaced, resulting in a decrease in the heat flux from the flame zone to the solid-phase decomposition surface.
