You can find quite some data on HPR motors on Aerotechs sites. The burn
time and configuration can be found in the instructions [1] and assembly
drawings [2]. The thickness of their standard liner can be found on
rocketmotorparts.com [3].
On the extreme end of the spectrum, motors like the N1000 moon burner
have less than 0.25mm of liner thickness per second of burn time,
although typical motors are >= 0.4mm/s in a BATES configuration.
Information on ATs propellant and liner properties is not public, so it
is unclear if their numbers are applicable to other designs.

Does anyone have any data on how long I can expect XX phenolic to survive the conditions in a solid rocket motor?
Anecdotal data helps: if some part of the phenolic wall was fully exposed to hot gas and was xx.xx inches or millimeters thick and did not fail; that’s data. If it did fail, that is data too.
I’m adept at squeezing trends out of limited data but 20 or so usable data points are sort of a minimum; I’m very happy to share any conclusions I may reach.
