A suitable computer code for prediction of sublimation energy and deflagration temperature of energetic materials

The computer code is elaborated for numerical simulation of transient combustion of energetic materials (EM) subjected to the action of time-dependent heat flux and under transient pressure conditions. It allows studying combustion response upon interrupted irradiation (transient pressure) and under action of periodically varied heat flux (pressure) in order to determine stability of ignition transients and parameters of transient combustion. The originally solid EM melts and then evaporates at the surface. It is assumed that chemical transformations occur both in the condensed and gas phases. At the burning surface, the phase transition condition in the form of Clapeyron-Clausius law for equilibrium evaporation is formulated that corresponds to the case of combustion of sublimated or melted EM. The paper contains description of transient combustion problem formulation and several examples of transient combustion modeling. At present time a precise prediction of transient burning rate characteristics is impossible because of the lack of information about magnitude of EM parameters at high temperatures. However, the simulation results bring valuable qualitative information about burning rate behavior at variations in time of external conditions – radiant flux and pressure.

Literary Space

What if the post-literary also meant that which operates in a literary space (almost) devoid of language as we know it: for instance, a space in which language simply frames the literary or poetic rather than ‘containing’ it? What if the countertextual also meant the (en)countering of literary text with non-textual elements, such as mathematical concepts, or with texts that we would not normally think of as literary, such as computer code? This article addresses these issues in relation to Nick Montfort's #!, a 2014 print collection of poems that presents readers with the output of computer programs as well as the programs themselves, which are designed to operate on principles of text generation regulated by specific constraints. More specifically, it focuses on two works in the collection, ‘Round’ and ‘All the Names of God’, which are read in relation to the notions of the ‘computational sublime’ and the ‘event’.
