Abstract
In this study, a thorough investigation of a stick propellant internal perforation erosive burning on interior ballistic performances is presented via extending the previous work of author. The stick propellant combustion process and the internal perforation erosive burning are revealed by numerical simulations. Different factors with respect to the stick propellant, including propellant length, internal perforation diameter and loading density are analysed in detail. Stick propellant length and the internal perforation diameter have a significant influence on the ballistic performance, the longer and smaller internal propellant have a greater erosive burning effect to the ballistic performance. Loading density has very weak influence on the ballistic.
