A PASSIVE TEMPERATURE-TELEMETERING SYSTEM FOR GUN-LAUNCHED MODELS

Abstract

A system was developed for telemetering surface temperature data from missile models in free flight along a ballistics range. The modelins a simple RLC circuit. The R portion is a temperature dependent film resistor. By inductive coupling, the RF energy is transmitted to and from the model as it passes pickup sta tions along the range. Using a 57-mm powder gun the models were launched at atmospheric condi tions to muzzle velocities of between 5,170 feet per second and 5,320 feet per second. (Author)
