Design, Calibration, and Implementation of a High Temperature Heat Flux Sensor for Hypersonic Flight Research
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent advances in heat flux measurement have produced a robust thermopile heat flux sensor intended for use in hypersonic flight research. The High Temperature Heat Flux Sensor (HTHFS) is capable of operation at sensor temperatures up to 1050°C with simultaneous measurement of thermopile surface temperature and heat flux. Customization of the sensor design allows implementation in a broad range of measurement scenarios. Output temperature dependence up to 600°C is calibrated with a new tabletop radiation system, ensuring accurate output characterization with the sensor placed in either cold wall or hot wall boundary conditions.

Heat Flux Determination from Ultrasonic Pulse Measurements
Ultrasonic time of flight measurements have been used to estimate the interior temperature of propulsion systems remotely. All that is needed is acoustic access to the boundary in question and a suitable model for the heat transfer along the path of the pulse train. The interior temperature is then deduced from a change in the time of flight and the temperature dependent velocity factor, which ...
