Optimized Design of Multilayer Thermal Insulations for Hypersonic Vehicles

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, high temperature multilayer thermal insulations were to investigate in thermal protection systems for hypersonic vehicles. The thermal response and thermal property of the multilayer insulations were simulated and analyzed by using Ansys software. The calculation results were analyzed and the effects of parameters such as layer thermal conductivity, layer thickness, layer density, and numbers of layer are clarified. Thermal property of multilayer insulations was optimized. The results are helpful to the optimum design of the multilayer insulation system.
