Abstract

Mathematical models of external heating of charges of pyrotechnic products based on compacted mixtures of aluminum-magnesium alloy powders and nitrate-containing oxidizers (sodium, potassium, strontium, and barium nitrates) were refined by taking into account the temperature dependence of their thermophysical properties (volumetric heat capacity and coefficient of thermal conductivity), which allowed to more accurately determine the critical values of heat flows and durations of their influence.
 New data were obtained to determine the critical ranges of the change in the burning rate of mixtures under conditions of elevated heating temperatures and external pressures for various values of technological parameters (the coefficient of excess oxidizer α; the average particle size of metal fuel powders dм microns and oxidizer dN), exceeding the ranges of which leads to premature ignition mixtures under conditions of external thermal effects and leads to unstable explosive development of their combustion process and fire-hazardous destruction of pyrotechnic products.
