a) CC (Carbon Carbon) composite is used for designing TPS in

the given problem.

Properties of CCDensity ()

= 1700Kg/m3

Specific heat capacity ( C P ) = 760 J/kg-K

Thermal conductivity ()
Thermal diffusivity ()

= 40 W/m-K
= 3.1E-5 m 2/s

b) Thickness = 40mm
Weight =68 kg
d)Temperature Variation with time.
It can be seen from figure that temperature is increasing
along TPS material with time. At 150s steady state is reached
and there is no change in temperature afterwards.

e)Temperature distribution across TPS material at

150s and 300s.

From graph it is clear that temperature variation profiles

coincides at 150s and 300s. For the given problem with CC
material steady state reaches at 150s and there is no
temperature variation thereafter, hence temperature profiles
coincide at 150s and 300s.
c) Effect of switching off radiation on temperature
distribution across TPS material at various time steps. It
can be seen that temperature reaches 2100k at 10s and
21500k at 30s from exposure to heat flux. Since melting
point of material is 2400k, after some time phase change of
material starts.
