Abstract:

The values of analytical prediction of ordnance temperatures are compared with values of experimentally measured temperatures. Four simple analytical approaches for predicting specific temperature-time values were used, and the experimental values were obtained during 1974 at the Naval Weapons Center. This part, Part 1, covers analytical methods of prediction Part 2 contains experimental data.
