The solid propellant rocket motor is so constructed and arranged that the propellant grain burns through to the case over its entire inner surface at the instant of complete burnout. Thus, during the burning period of the rocket motor, the propellant itself serves as thermal insulation for the case, shielding the latter against the high temperature combustion gases, and at the moment any of the case is first exposed to the hot gases, the combustion process ceases, due to exhaustion of the propellant.
