Transient burning of TiH/sub X//KClO/sub 4/ in a closed system is formulated including the effect of condensed species. Thermodynamic properties are evaluated using both BLAKE and TIGER computer codes. Three different equations of state for gaseous species are used and their effect on the burning rate is evaluated. For more accurate transient burning analysis, a pressure dependent covolume for gaseous species is generated. The effect of pressure dependent covolume as well as the condensed species on transient burning is evaluated. Both parameters are found to be important when the burning rate at high loading densities in a closed system is considered. At high loading densities, condensed species become important not only because of the their effect on thermodynamic properties but also due to the volume occupied by these species. 11 refs., 2 figs., 2 tabs.
