Tests of Propellant grains with Star, Configuration. Completing preliminary work initiated by NOTS several years ago, photoelastic tests were conducted to determine the maximum tangential stress for a family of star-grain configurations in a state of plane stress. Curves are presented that give the value of the ratio of tangential stress to external pressure for web fractions from 20 to 60% for w/Rho from approximately 2 to 30 (w is the web thickness of the grain, and R HO IS THE RADIUS OF THE STAR POINT), and N (number of star points) from 3 to 8. The accuracy of the curves is estimated to be within + or - 4%. The effect of the inverse star point as investigate an found to be negligi le over a range of shapes and values of the parameter a prime/a (ratio of distances from center to the inverse star point and to the outer tar point) ROM APPROXIMATELY ZERO TO). . The experimental results c pare favorably with one theoretical calc lation. Equations are given f r extension of the data to case-bonded, internally pressurized grains and for application to problems of tangential strain. An empirical equation representing the data is appended. (Author).
