Abstract:

The test was designed to furnish data for determining the firing capabilities of the M29 mortar when using the M362 and XM374 rounds under arctic winter conditions. Firing consisted of a series of single-round shots with various propelling charges during which the pressure level and temperature-rise and decay were recorded. It is concluded that the data generated are applicable to the heat-transfer studies of the 81-mm, M29 mortar. Author
