Abstract

A thermodynamic analysis of the reactive erosion of steels by pure high-temperature gases and combustion products of solid propellants has been carried out. The temperature dependencies of the oxygen partial pressure and carbon activity of the gas mixtures as well as of main components of the steel alloy were calculated. Comparison of experimental results and thermodynamic calculations was presented. It was shown that thermodynamic approach can interpret various experimental results of steel erosion.
