Development of a Sheathed Miniature Aerothermal Reentry Thermocouple for Thermal Protection System Materials
Year: 2011
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The Sheathed Miniature Aerothermal Reentry Thermocouple is a micro-miniature thermocouple for high temperature measurement in extreme environments. It is available for use in Thermal Protection System materials for ground testing and flight. This paper discusses the heritage, and design of the instrument. Experimental and analytical methods used to verify its performance and limitations are described.
