Abstract
Double base rocket propellants with and without aluminum were burned in a centrifuge at two pressures and nine accelerations. ,The burning rates were measured to isolate the effect of the aluminum. The burning rate of the non-aluminized propellant was found to vary with acceleration and a model was advanced. The addition of aluminum causes an increase in burning rate at higher accelerations and a possible mechanism is discussed.
