The Contractor shall select propellant granulations for approval by Government Engineering and Product Assurance, which, from experience, are expected to bracket the

23、 requirements of this specification. The contractor shall submit a preproduction sample as designated by the Contracting Officer for evaluation in accordance with 4.3.2, usually consisting of up to three pilot lots of approximately 3000 lb each, representing each of the candidate granulations. 4.3.2

24、 Inspections to be performed. Each of the pilot lots comprising the preproduction sample and submitted in accordance with 4.3,l may be subjected by the Government to anyor all of the requirements of the applicable drawings and specifications. 4.3.3 Rejection. Government Engineering and Product Assur

25、ance personnel and the Contractor shall review the pilot lot test data and shall select a granulation which best fits the requirements of this specification. The Technical Agency shall notify the Contracting Officer of the selected granulation. The Contracting Officer shall designate the preproducti

26、on sample as acceptable and shall authorize the Contractor to produce the selected granulation for regular production. If the pilot lots submitted fail to meet or bracket the requirements of this specification, a new preproduction sample shall be submitted in accordance with 4.3.1. Until the preprod

27、uction sample is designated acceptable, the Contractor is in no way authorized by the Government to initiate regular production, unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer.

Accordid$iY, it is emphasized that all applicable safety rules, regulations and procedures must be follow

30、ed in handling and processing these materials. . 4.4.2.1 Sampling for laboratory testing (see 3.1). Each lot of propellant shall be sampled and testd for composition form, dimensions and chemical/physical properties in accordance with MIL-STD-652. (see 6.4) 4.4.2.2 Samplinq for baliistic testing (se

31、e 3.2). Each lof of propellant shall be cambled for Proving Ground tests in accordance with MIL-STD-652. 4.4.2.3 Charqe establishment (see 3.2) If the lot does not meet the applicable requirements, testing shall cease and the Test Director shall immediately not if y the procuring activity . 4.4.2.4

32、Velocity uniformity (7O0F) (see 3.3.1). If the product of the factor (-73 for initial production, .69 for subsequent production) times the velocity standard deviatin of the rounds tested in accordance with 4.5.1.2 exceeds the applicable requirement, apply refkral criteria in accordance with 4.5.1.4.

33、 shall be rejected. The factor makes allowande for the probability that a standard deviation from a sri-igller sample size xceeds th true standard deviation by chance Alone. The standard deviation shall be calculated with (n-i) as the divisor in a standard statistical technique equivalent to that sh

34、own in NIL-STD-414. If the referral criteria cited do not apply, the lot 4.4.2.5 Averaqe pressure (see 3.3.2). If the dveragg pressure obtained exceeds the applicable re uireirlents, apply criteria cited do not apply, the lot shall b- irejectede any individual pressure observed during the uniformity

35、 kkies, when corrected to standard conditions and recommended 70F, + 2.50F, 1450F, -50F. Copper crusher gages (2) shall be used to measure the maximum chamber pressure of each charge. Velocity coils will be used to measure the muzzle velocity of each charge. Test charges shall be assembled in accord

36、ance with drawing 9282042 and MIL-C-48360. 4.5.1.1 Charqe establishment (see Table I) 4.5.1.1.1 Charge slope method. Three or more groups of rounds loaded with selected charge weights of propellant (weights selected should bracket expected service charge weight) shall be conditioned and fired at 7OO

37、F. Three calibration rounds shall also be conditioned and fired at 700F, prior to the test rounds. From the data obtained, a charge weight shall be calculated which will yield the prescribed service velocity (see 3.2). This calculated charge weight shall then be loaded into rounds for the uniformity

38、 series (see 4.5.1.2). The difference between the corrected velocity obtained during the uniformity series and the service velocity shall be compensated for by a final adjustment in charge weight using the slope of the velocity charge weight curve previously established. The resultant will be the re

39、commended charge weight . 4.5.1.1.2 Constant slope method. After ten (10) lots of a given production series have been fired to provide a good knowledge of the propellant characteristics, the charge slope method of assessment may be discontinued and the charge weight determined by the constant slope

40、method. A composite charge weight versus velocity curve and charge weight versus pressure curve can be established from test results generated. This curve can then be used as in 4.5.1.1.1 to calculate the charge weight needed to achieve service velocity. This calculated charge weight is then to be l

41、oaded into charges for the uniformity series and final adjustment is to be made as indicated above for the charge slope method (see 4.5.1.1.1). The resultant will be the recommended charge weight. 6 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-I M
