This report describes an ignition technique whereby rocket motor propellants may be evaluated for smoke production in a quantitative manner with no deleterious effects attributed by the igniter. This technique is also applicable to areas of rocket signature such as flash, IR, RF, and plume studies. The ignition technique is one in which the same propellant being investigated is ground burned at very high pressure with the resulting gases used to ignite the propellant being measured. (Author)
