Interior ballistics phenomena refers to the dynamics of a projectile, propellant gases, and related components inside a gun barrel from the time of ignition until projectile exit at the muzzle. Key factors include the burning rate of the propellant and how it converts from a solid to gas, along with the transfer of energy from the expanding gases to accelerate the projectile down the barrel before it separates from contact. Proper understanding of interior ballistics helps optimize gun design and performance for applications like small arms, artillery, and rockets.
