The present work has been studied to investigate the effect of formulation on friability of HTPB/AP propellants including Butacene and $Cr_{2}O_3$. The mechanical properties and burning rate of the propellants were measured using Inston tensile tester and strand burner, respectively. Friability was calculated by shot-gun and closed bomb test. The result showed that friability was higher, as the content of Butacene or AP $6{\mu}m$ in the propellant formulations was increased.

In order to simulate the ignition-gas injection in the interior ballistics, a two-dimensional analytic code for two-phase flows has been developed. The Eulerian-Lagrangian approach and the low-dissipation simple high-resolution upwind scheme(LSHUS) have been adopted in the numerical code for the propellant combustion of the gun propelling charges. The ghost-cell extrapolation method has been used for the moving boundary in the chamber with the projectile movement. The calculation results of the developed code have been compared and verified through those of the dimensionless IBHVG2 code and the previous one-dimensional code. In comparison with the two-phase flows according to the drag models, the numerical analysis of the muzzle velocity has been affected by the drag model.

In the present work, the effect of formulation on friability of HTPB/AP propellants including Betacene and $Cr_2O_3$ has been studied. The mechanical properties and burning rate of the propellants were measured using Inston tensile tester and strand burner, respectively. Friability was calculated from shot-gun and closed bomb test data. The result showed that friability was higher, as the content of Butacene or AP $6{\mu}m$ in the propellant formulations was increased.

In this paper, dynamic pressure is mainly generated in the closed chamber of gun when the propellant is fired and has exponential pressure motion. Dynamic pressure calibrator with positive step pressure was designed and manufactured to meet the calibration of piezoelectric high pressure transducers which are mainly used to measure dynamic pressure motion in the test of weapon systems. In addition, the results of Performance test and analysis of system uncertainty are provided.

A numerical method for the moving boundary required in analysis of the combustion phenomenon of the solid propellant has been studied. The ghost cell extrapolation has been used in the Eulerian coordinate system. The Lagrangian method has been used in Non-Eulerian coordinate system. Results of the numerical analysis were verified by comparing to theoretical results of 1-D free-moving piston in the pipe.

The firing noise produced at artillery test range or military training ground is impulsive burst noise which energy is generated within tens of milliseconds and distributed an isolated burst of sound energy separated to one by one noise. The long range propagation of this noise is affected by a caliber of gun, amount of propellant, distance between source and receiver, ground and meteorological condition. In this paper, main influence parameters have been described based on experimental analysis of measured data. It is considered that this analysis result can be used as useful materials for study of effective firing noise management and development of propagation model.

In this paper, a numerical code for the interior ballistics has been investigated. The Eulerian-Lagrangian approach and the SMART scheme have been used in the numerical code for the grain combustion. The translational kinetic energy of the projectile and work done against barrel friction have been considered only. The ghost cell extrapolation method has been used for the chamber change with the projectile movement. The calculation results of the numerical code have been compared and verified through those of IBHVG2 code.

This research concerns the characteristics of tank barrel inner flow according to the barrel length and the pressure of ammunition when fired. By analyzing the flow characteristics of the bore evacuator according to barrel length and ammunition pressure regarding ammunition design, it is possible to prevent the flareback phenomenon that may occur during ammunition operation. Through bore evacuator flow analysis by barrel length and ammunition pressure, we identified key design factors concerning barrel and ammunition compatibility including speed, accuracy, penetration performance and range. Test results found if barrel length is long and ammunition pressure is low, bore evacuator operation time is slow. Therefore, there is a high probability that propellant gas will enter the battle vehicle. Therefore, the correlation analysis method of bore evacuator flow characteristics based on barrel length and ammunition pressure is considered as a primary method to improve operational performance. When designing new ammunition, the correlation analysis method will be used to determine ammunition weight and select the propellant pressure.

Operation area of corps was expanded under military reformation, and extending range of 155 mm howitzer became important issue. New approach is needed to extend range to 80 kim. Ramjet engine is air breathing engine, and it can provide specific impulse several times more than solid rocket motor so that range is extended using same weight of propellant. If the ramjet engine is gun-launched system, it does not require any other booster because muzzle velocity is near Mach 3. Especially solid fuel ramjet (SFRJ) does not have any moving part so that it is favorable for gun-launching system which is under high stress during launching. In this paper, we design air intake, combustion chamber, and nozzle of 155 mm gun launched ramjet propelled artillery shell with inviscid flow assumption. We conduct parameter study to have range more than 80 km, and maximum high explosive volume.
