    Kinetic limitations on the diffusional control theory of the ablation rate of carbon. (1971)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: It is shown that the theoretical maximum oxidation rate is limited in many cases even at temperatures much higher than 1650 deg K, not by oxygen transport, but by the kinetics of the carbon-oxygen reaction itself. Mass-loss rates have been calculated at air pressures of 0.01 atm, 1 atm, and 100 atm. It is found that at high temperatures the rate of the oxidation reaction is much slower than has generally been assumed on the basis of a simple linear extrapolation of Scala's 'fast' and 'slow' rate expressions. Accordingly it cannot be assumed that a transport limitation inevitably must be reached at high temperatures.

    Inhibition of the ablation rate of graphite by gaseous chlorine. (1972)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: Investigation of the inhibiting effect of gaseous chlorine on the ablation rate of graphite. It is shown that small amounts of chlorine gas, when present in a supersonic high-temperature air environment, can inhibit the ablation rate of graphite and depress its surface temperature below that measured in pure air. The ablation inhibition performance of chlorine is presented in graphs in terms of mass loss rate and surface temperature depression as a function of chlorine concentration.

    Sulfur-dioxide/water equilibria between 0 and 50 C - An examination of data at low concentrations (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: In order to resolve the discrepancy noted in values currently used for the first dissociation constant of SO2 in water, the pertinent literature was critically examined and a value of 0.0132 M at 25 C was recommended. An expression correlating this value as a function of temperature for zero-50 C has been developed. Attention is also given to the literature for the Henry's law constant, and a value of 1.242 M/atm at 25 C is recommended. Ionic activity corrections and speciation in more concentrated solutions are discussed, and recommendations are made for estimating the activity coefficients of the various ionic species in solutions of moderate ionic strength.

    Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of S(IV) by ozone in aqueous solution with particular reference to SO2 conversion in nonurban tropospheric clouds (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Results are presented from a laboratory study of the kinetics of the S(IV)-O3 reaction in aqueous solution, including measurements of the effects of UV radiation, dissolved transition metals, and an antioxidant (hydroquinone) on the rate. On the basis of the results, relative rates of S(IV) conversion by O3 in tropospheric cloud water are compared with those predicted for H2O2 and for O2. The reaction mechanism is discussed, with an outline given of the elements of a possible reaction scheme. Application of the rate constants obtained to SO2 conversion in cloud water predicts conversion rates by ozone to be competitive with those by H2O2 at pH above about 4.5 and to dominate at pH above about 5.5. It is pointed out that since these pH's are typical for nonurban tropospheric cloud water, ozone is a potentially important contributor to the overall oxidative conversion of SO2 to sulfate in the nonurban troposphere.

    Considerations Concerning the Development and Testing of In-situ Materials for Martian Exploration (2000)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-06-02
    Description: Natural Martian surface materials are evaluated for their potential use as radiation shields for manned Mars missions. The modified radiation fluences behind various kinds of Martian rocks and regolith are determined by solving the Boltzmann equation using NASA Langley s HZETRN code along with the 1977 Solar Minimum galactic cosmic ray environmental model. To make structural shielding composite materials from constituents of the Mars atmosphere and from Martian regolith for Martian surface habitats, schemes for synthesizing polyimide from the Mars atmosphere and for processing Martian regolith/polyimide composites are proposed. Theoretical predictions of the shielding properties of these composites are computed to assess their shielding effectiveness. Adding high-performance polymer binders to Martian regolith to enhance structural properties enhances the shielding properties of these composites because of the added hydrogenous constituents. Laboratory testing of regolith simulant/polyimide composites is planned to validate this prediction.

    Micromechanics of crenulated fibers in carbon/carbon composites (1993)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The influence of crenulated noncircular fibers on the micromechanical stress states due to a transverse strain and to a temperature change in carbon/carbon composites is examined using the finite element method. Stresses at the interface of both fully bonded and fully disbonded fibers having two crenulation amplitudes and with two fiber volume fractions are presented. In each case, these interface stresses are compared to stresses at the interface of circular fibers which have the same degree of disbond and fiber volume fraction and are under the same loading conditions. For the disbonded cases, deformed meshes showing locations of fiber/matrix contact are also included. In addition to the interface stress states, selected composite properties are also computed and compared in each case examined. Interest in studying noncircular fibers stems from a desire to increase the transverse properties of carbon/carbon by introducing a mechanical interlocking between the fiber and the matrix. Results presented here indicate that this interlocking does in fact occur. Evidence from the interface stress data suggests, however, that any possible advantage of this interlocking may be outweighed by the disadvantage of stress concentrations which arise at the interface due to the crenulated geometry of the fibers.

    Pollutant emissions from flat-flame burners at high pressures (1980)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Maximum flame temperatures and pollutant emission measurements for NOx, CO, and UHC (unburned hydrocarbons) are reported for premixed methane air flat flames at constant total mass flow rate over the pressure range from 1.9 to 30 atm and for equivalence ratios from 0.84 to 1.12. For any given pressure, maxima typically occur in both the temperature and NOx emissions curves slightly to the lean side of stoichiometric conditions. The UHC emissions show minima at roughly the same equivalence ratios. The CO emissions, however, increase continually with increasing equivalence ratio. Flame temperature and NOx emissions decrease with increasing pressure, while the opposite is true for the CO and UHC emissions. The NOx data correlate reasonably well as a function of flame temperature only. Four flameholders, differing only slightly, were used. In general, the temperature and emissions data from these four flameholders are similar, but some differences also exist. These differences appear to be related to minor variations in the condition of the flameholder surfaces.

    Effect of pressure on structure and NO sub X formation in CO-air diffusion flames (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: A study was made of nitric oxide formation in a laminar CO-air diffusion flame over a pressure range from 1 to 50 atm. The carbon monoxide (CO) issued from a 3.06 mm diameter port coaxially into a coflowing stream of air confined within a 20.5 mm diameter chimney. Nitric oxide concentrations from the flame were measured at two carbon monoxide (fuel) flow rates: 73 standard cubic/min and 146 sccm. Comparison of the present data with data in the literature for a methane-air diffusion flame shows that for flames of comparable flame height (8 to 10 mm) and pseudoequivalence ratio (0.162), the molar emission index of a CO-air flame is significantly greater than that of a methane-air flame.

    Interference of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor on the analysis for oxides of nitrogen by chemiluminescence (1975)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The interference of small concentrations (less than 4 percent by volume) of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor on the analysis for oxides of nitrogen by chemiluminescence was measured. The sample gas consisted primarily of nitrogen, with less than 100 parts per million concentration of nitric oxide, and with small concentrations of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor added. Results obtained under these conditions indicate that although oxygen does not measurably affect the analysis for nitric oxide, the presence of carbon dioxide and water vapor causes the indicated nitric oxide concentration to be too low. An interference factor - defined as the percentage change in indicated nitric oxide concentration (relative to the true nitric oxide concentration) divided by the percent interfering gas present - was determined for carbon dioxide to be -0.60 + or - 0.04 and for water vapor to be -2.1 + or - 0.3.
