Abstract

The experimentally known phenomenon of oscillatory instability in convective burning ofporous explosives is discussed. A simple phenomenological model accounting for theejection of unburned particles from the consolidated charge is formulated and analyzed. Itis shown that the post-front hydraulic resistance induced by the ejected particlesprovides a mechanism for the oscillatory burning.
