INVESTIGATION OF FEASIBILITY OF UTILIZING AVAILABLE HEAT RESISTANT MATERIALS FOR HYPERSONIC LEADING EDGE APPLICATIONS VOLUME IV—Thermal Properties of Molybdenum Alloy and Graphite

摘要

The purpose of this contract was to investigate the feasibility of utilizing available heat resistant materials in the fabrication of leading edges for hypersonic boost-glide vehicles. This particular volume presents the results of measurements of the thermal conductivity, specific heat, linear thermal expansion, and emittance of a 0,5% titanium alloy of molybdenum, and of siliconized ATJ graphite as a function of temperature. Emittance measurements were made on coated and uncoated materials.
