15 Earth Reentry Overview Atmospheric reentry vehicles require thermal protection systems (TPS) because they are subjected to intense heating The level of the heating is dependent on: Vehicle shape Entry speed and flight trajectory Atmospheric composition TPS material composition & surface properties Reentry heating to the vehicle comes from two primary Sources Convective heating from both the flow of hot gas past the surface of the vehicle and catalytic chemical recombination reactions at the surface Radiation heating from the energetic shock layer in front of the vehicle Tito, MacCallum, Carrico, Loucks 15
16 Looked at Aerocapture initially Tito, MacCallum, Carrico, Loucks 16
17 Reentry Heating Parameters Magnitude of stagnation heating is dependent on a variety of parameters, including reentry speed (V), vehicle effective radius (R), and atmospheric density (ρ) q conv V 3 R 0.5 Convective Heating As reentry speed increases, both convective and radiation heating increase At high speeds, such as 14.2 Km/s, radiation heating can quickly dominate As the effective vehicle radius increases, R convective heating decreases, but radiation heating increases Reentry g-loading is a parameter we 2R are considering q rad V R 0.5 Shock Radiation Heating Tito, MacCallum, Carrico, Loucks 17 V
