S-Band Propagation with Acid-Aniline Flame Barriers

Abstract

Flames of the 400-pound-thrust and 220-pound-thrust "Lark" missile reaction motors operating in static thrust were subjected to horizontally polarized S-band radiation for quasi-optical propagation effects. Results, presented in the form of deviations from the normal field pattern, indicate that these flames are nearly transparent to horizontally polarized S-band radiation. Propagation anomalies due to the flame are substantially secondary when compare with artificial barriers such as a hollow plastic tube (lucite), a length of 2 x 4 inch wood, "Harp" tubing, and a 2-inch copper pipe.
