        Abstract
        Aluminized propellant strand lengths from one-quarter to two inches were burned at accelerations from zero to 1000g at a mean combustion pressure of 500 psia to study the effect of acceleration and strand length on burning rate augmentation. Propellant ammonium perchlorate oxidizer size and base burning rate were varied to investigate their effects. Each post-fire residue was photographically recorded and chemical analysis was performed by X-Ray powder diffraction.
