The continuous shear roll milling can be used for the processing and granulation of gun propellants. Here a mathematical model of the continuous shear roll milling process will be presented along with experimental data collected on live and simulant propellant formulations. The role of the flow boundary condition will be shown to be critical in the processability analysis. The safety aspects will be discussed under the light of the modeling and experimental results.
