TL;DR: In this article, the characteristics of the discharge cycle in the conical chamber and the shock tube performance are described, and the obtained results are compared with those reported by Menard (1971).
Abstract: Review of some exploratory test results for an electrical discharge driver with a conical-shaped arc chamber. The characteristics of the discharge cycle in the conical chamber and the shock tube performance are described, and the obtained results are compared with those reported by Menard (1971).

TL;DR: In this paper, a liquid propellant modular gun with an externally driven and cam operated by a drive cam and a control cam is presented, where a water injection mechanism is also associated with the control cam for injecting a small amount of water into the combustion chamber after each round to cool the combustion structure by internal water cooling.
Abstract: A liquid propellant modular gun has a slim profile and is constructed for wide latitude in gun cluster configuration. The modular gun has a stationary barrel and is externally driven and cam operated by a drive cam and a control cam. The drive cam has one internal spiral cam track for driving the bolt forward to a projectile firing position and another internal spiral cam track for driving the bolt rearward to a projectile loading position. The control cam is mounted for rotation at the forward end of the drive cam and controls the injection of liquid propellant into the combustion chamber and an electrical igniter. A water injection mechanism is also associated with the control cam for injecting a small amount of water into the combustion chamber after the firing of each round to cool the combustion chamber structure by internal water cooling. The water injection mechanism is also effective to purge propellant from the combustion chamber in the event of a misfire. The bolt is rotated to a locked position at the forward end of its travel where locking lugs on the bolt are engaged with mating lugs on the barrel so that all breach loads caused by chamber pressure are carried through the barrel rather than the receiver. This permits the receiver to be made quite light.
