This report is concerned with achieving improved combustion of the aluminum ingredient in solid propellant. The approach is to clarify understanding of the complex detailed process exhibited by aluminum and relate them to control of propellant burning rate, combustion stability, combustion efficiency and two phase flow behavior in the motor. A series of experiments were contrived to elucidate the microscopic details of aluminum behavior and their relation to microscopic details of the propellant, and to behavior of the other propellant ingredients.
