Abstract
n this paper, the mathematical modeling of the flo w in a porous cylinder with a focus on applications to solid rocket motors is presented.
The cylindrical prop ellant grain of a solid rocket motor is modeled as a long tube with one end closed at the headwall, while the other rem ains open
The problem description and for mulation are considered. The Navier-Stokes equations for the vis cous flow in a porous cylinder with regressing wall s are reduced to a nonlinear ODE by using a similarity transforma tion in time and space
. Application of Differential Transformation Method (DTM) as an approximate analytical method ha s been successfully applied
