The use of plasma sprayed ultra high temperature ceramics for thermal protection systems (TPS) was discussed. TPS must be able to withstand thermal and aeroconvective environments and mechanical stresses associated with launch vibrations. Optimization of plasma spraying parameters which are based on a DOE approach were also studied. It was found that high temperature testing can give thermal stability and thermal shock resistance to fabricated samples.

Abstract
The use of plasma sprayed ultra high temperature ceramics for thermal protection systems (TPS) was discussed. TPS must be able to withstand thermal and aeroconvective environments and mechanical stresses associated with launch vibrations. Optimization of plasma spraying parameters which are based on a DOE approach were also studied. It was found that high temperature testing can give thermal stability and thermal shock resistance to fabricated samples.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
