Abstract
In this study, combustion modeling of ZPP and $BKNO_3$ mainly used in the PMD industries has been performed. Saint Robert's law, energy conservation equation, and the Noble-Abel equation of the state have been used for governing equations. The results of pressure obtained from established combustion models and actual CBT have been compared. In the case of ZPP, the model has predicted a pressure curve similar to that of the experimental results, but $BKNO_3$ has showed that the maximum pressure of the model is greater than the experiment at small chamber volume. For these gaps, the probability of $BKNO_3$ unburning has been considered.
