METHOD OF COMBUSTION REACTION INITIATION IN AMMUNITION OF THERMO-BARO-LIGHT VOLUMETRIC ACTION OF ENERGY OF SELF-SPREADING HIGH-TEMPERATURE SYNTHESIS Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC C22C1/05 C06B43/00 

FIELD: weapons and ammunition.

SUBSTANCE: method involves arrangement in tight chamber of ammunition of reagents participating in SHS (self-spreading high-temperature synthesis), initiation of combustion reaction for synthesis of high-melting non-organic compounds and explosion load on chamber and its contents destructing the chamber and dispersing its contents to the environment. At that, for combustion in the chamber volume from the moment of initiation and after destruction of chamber during dispersion of the contents to the environment, the mixture mainly of two reagents chosen from group of boron, carbon, titanium, nitrogen is used as reagents participating in SHS as per the following ratio: 2.0 ≤ Me 10^-6 ≤ 9.1; Me = Tad · Q, where M_e - power of thermo-light energy of SHS, K cal/g; Q - heat effect of SHS reaction, cal/g; T_ad - adiabatic combustion temperature of reagents participating in SHS, K. Combustion reaction initiation is performed in presence of hypergol high-activity chemical reagents of nitrogen-producing compounds or mixture of zinc with metal oxides.

EFFECT: improving use efficiency of SHS energy.
