Abstract: The limit of the steady combustion of powder charges of different lengths has been studied in a model combustion chamber of a solid-propellant motor. The value of the critical apparatus constant at which powder extinction occurs was determined. Combustion regimes in which the chamber pressure can be much lower than that in the steady combustion regime were recorded for long charges. The causes of occurrence of these combustion regimes are discussed.
