Experimental Investigation of the Helmholtz Resonator Burner: Three Months at China Lake, California

摘要

The Naval Weapons Center, its aerothermochemistry division, and the propulsion research laboratory are described. Experiments that were carried out with Helmholtz resonator burners are recounted. Results show that Helmholtz resonator burners can be used to determine the response function of solid rocket propellants. Evidence was also obtained of high sensitivity for oscillatory combustion at low frequencies.
