Friction pull plug welding: chamfered heat sink pull plug design

The average strength of a pull plug weld is increased and weak bonding eliminated by providing a dual included angle at the top one third of the pull plug. Plugs using the included angle of the present invention had consistent high strength, no weak bonds and were substantially defect free. The dual angle of the pull plug body increases the heat and pressure of the weld in the region of the top one third of the plug. This allows the plug to form a tight high quality solid state bond. The dual angle was found to be successful in elimination of defects on both small and large plugs.

Photometry and polarimetry

A review of available information on the photometry, polarimetry, and narrow band spectrophotometry of Titan discusses five major categories: (1) brightness and color as a function of orbital position; (2) brightness and color as a function of solar phase angle; (3) geometric and bond albedo; (4) reflectance as a function of wavelength; and (5) polarization as a function of solar phase angle. It is concluded that a Saturn-like cloud model may be required to explain the sum of polarimetric and photometric observations.

Flowfield Analysis of a Small Entry Probe (SPRITE) Tested in an Arc Jet

A novel concept of small size (diameter less than 15 inches) entry probes named SPRITE (Small Probe Re-entry Investigation for TPS Engineering) has been developed at NASA Ames Research Center (ARC). These flight probes have on-board data acquisition systems that have also been developed in parallel at NASA ARC by Greg Swanson1. Flight probes of this size facilitate testing over a wide range of conditions in arc jets available at NASA ARC, thereby fulfilling a 'test what you fly' paradigm. As indicated by the acronym, these probes, with suitably tailored trajectories, are primarily meant to be robotic flight test beds for TPS materials, although the design is flexible enough to accommodate additional objectives of flight-testing other vehicle subsystems. A first step towards establishing the feasibility of the SPRITE concept is to arc-jet test fully instrumented models at flight scale. In a follow-on to the Large-Scale Article Tests (LSAT2) performed in the 60 MW Interaction Heating Facility (IHF) in late 2008/early 2009, a full-scale model of Deep Space-2 (DS23) made of red oak was tested in the 20 MW Aerodynamic Heating Facility (AHF). There were no issues with mass capture by the diffuser for blunt bodies of roughly 15 inches diameter tested in the 18-inch nozzle of the AHF. Building on this initial success, two identical test articles - SPRITE-T1-1 and SPRITE-T1-2 (T1 indicating the choice of back shell geometry) - were fabricated, and one of them, SPRITE-T1-1, was tested in the AHF recently. Both these test articles, 14 inches in diameter, have a 45deg sphere-cone (like DS2) made of PICA bonded on to a 1/8th inch thick aluminum shell using RTV. The aft portion of the test article is a conical frustum (15deg cone angle) with LI-2200 bonded on to the aluminum shell. Each model is fully instrumented with: (a) thermocouples imbedded in plugs in the heat shield, (b) thermocouples bonded to the aluminum substructure; the thermocouples are distributed over the entire shell, and (c) a few strain gages. Data from some of the thermocouples and gages are acquired by the on-board data acquisition system (DAS), while data from the others are routed to the facility-provided DAS, thereby enabling a cross check on the in situ measurement capability. as inputs to v2.6.1 of the in-house materials thermal response code, FIAT
