Abstract

This study provides a comprehensive introduction to the combustion of solid propellants. We conduct a thorough review of existing physical-mathematical models related to solid fuel combustion processes. Additionally, we explore the heat propagation within the solid phase, examine the physical chemical processes in the k–phase, and investigate the fundamental solution of the heat conduction equation in a multiphase (k–phase) medium. The heat conduction equation plays a crucial role in governing the temperature distribution within a given material, and a profound understanding of its fundamental solution is essential for various engineering and scientific applications. In this research, we expand our analysis to a multiphase scenario, considering different phases with distinct thermal properties coexisting.
