24、diative heat transfer rate or combined convective/radiative heat transfer rate values, the surface reflectivity of thecalorimeter should be measured over the wavelength region ofinterest (depending on the source of radiant energy).4. Significance and Use4.1 The purpose of this test method is to meas

25、ure the rate ofthermal energy per unit area transferred into a known piece ofmaterial (slug) for purposes of calibrating the thermal environ-ment into which test specimens are placed for evaluation. Thecalorimeter and holder size and shape should be identical tothat of the test specimen. In this man

26、ner, the measured heattransfer rate to the calorimeter can be related to that experi-enced by the test specimen.4.2 The slug calorimeter is one of many calorimeter con-cepts used to measure heat transfer rate. This type of calorim-eter is simple to fabricate, inexpensive, and readily installedsince

27、it is not water-cooled. The primary disadvantages are itsshort lifetime and relatively long cool-down time after expo-sure to the thermal environment. In measuring the heat transferrate to the calorimeter, accurate measurement of the rate of risein back-face temperature is imperative.4.3 In the eval

28、uation of high-temperature materials, slugcalorimeters are used to measure the heat transfer rate onvarious parts of the instrumented models, since heat transferrate is one of the important parameters in evaluating theperformance of ablative materials.4.4 Regardless of the source of thermal energy t

29、o thecalorimeter (radiative, convective, or a combination thereof)the measurement is averaged over the calorimeter surface. If asignificant percentage of the total thermal energy is radiative,consideration should be given to the emissivity of the slugsurface. If non-uniformities exist in the input e

30、nergy, the heattransfer rate calorimeter would tend to average these varia-tions; therefore, the size of the sensing element (that is, theslug) should be limited to small diameters in order to measureFIG. 2 Typical TemperatureTime Curve for Slug CalorimeterE 457 96 (2002)3local heat transfer rate va

31、lues.Where large ablative samples areto be tested, it is recommended that a number of calorimetersbe incorporated in the body of the test specimen such that aheat transfer rate distribution across the heated surface can bedetermined. In this manner, more representative heat transferrate values can b

32、e defined for the test specimen and thus enablemore meaningful interpretation of the test. The slug selectionmay be determined using the nomogram as a guide (seeAppendix X1).5. Apparatus5.1 GeneralThe apparatus shall consist of a thermalcapacitance (slug) calorimeter and the necessary instrumenta-ti

33、on to measure the thermal energy transferred to the calorim-eter. All calculations should use only those data taken after theheat source has achieved steady-state operating conditions.Wherever possible, it is desirable that several measurements bemade of the required parameters.5.2 Back-Face Tempera

34、ture MeasurementThe method oftemperature measurement must be sufficiently sensitive andreliable to ensure accurate temperature rise data for theback-face thermocouple. Procedures should be adhered to inthe calibration and preparation of the thermocouples. Attach-ment of the thermocouples should be s

35、uch that the trueback-side temperatures are obtained.Although no standardizedprocedures are available, methods such as resistance welding(small spot) and peening have been successfully used. Theerror in measurement of temperature difference between theinitial and final times should not exceed 62 %.

36、The tempera-ture measurements shall be recorded continuously using acommercially available recorder whose frequency response isat least ten times the expected frequency response of the slugto provide the accuracy required. During the course of opera-tion of the plasma arc or other heat source, care

37、must be takento minimize deposits on the calorimeter surface.5.3 Data AcquisitionThe important parameter, back-facetemperature rise, shall be automatically recorded throughoutthe calibration period. Recording speed will depend on the heattransfer rate level such that the time range shall approach th

38、etemperature rise displacement on the recording paper. Timingmarks shall be an integral part of the recorder output.6. Procedure6.1 It is essential that the thermal energy source (environ-ment) be at steady-state conditions prior to testing if thethermal capacitance calorimeter is to produce represe

39、ntativeheat transfer rate measurements. Make a millivolt scale cali-bration of the recorder prior to exposure of the calorimeter tothe environment. With the recorder operating at the properspeed (see 4.3), expose the calorimeter to the thermal environ-ment as rapidly as possible. After removal from

40、the thermalenvironment, record the back-face temperature for sufficienttime to determine the heat loss rate from the slug. Significantdifferences between the maximum and post-test values mayindicate heat conduction losses to the calorimeter body. Iffeasible, obtain more than one measurement with mor

41、e thanone test method for a given thermal environment. To ensurethat energy losses are minimized, the cooling rate slope shouldcompare with the heating rate slope according to the followingequation:DT/Dt! cooling#0.05 DT/Dt! heating (5)7. Heat Transfer Rate Calculation7.1 The quantities as defined b

42、y Eq 1 shall be calculatedbased on the physical properties of the slug material, dimen-sions of the slug, and the slope of the temperaturetime curveof the calorimeter. The choice of units shall be consistent withthe measured quantities. Variance analyses of thermal testconditions shall provide a sou

43、nd basis for estimation of thereproducibility of the plasma arc or heat source environment.An error analysis of the measurements used in the heat transferor energy determination is advisable.8.
