TRAP-ML-A Two Dimensional Thermal Response Code Tailored for the Defense Nuclear Agency Tri-Service Thermal Radiation Test Facility.

Abstract

TRAP-ML is a digital computer code for calculating the two-dimensional thermal response of materials exposed to thermal radiation and wind tunnel cooling. In particular, the code can simulate the Defense Nuclear Agency Tri-Service Thermal Radiation Test Facility located at the Air Force Materials Laboratory, WPAFB, which, in turn, can simulate an in-flight nuclear encounter. The program is capable of analyzing multi-material, multi-layer samples exposed to either quartz-lamp radiation or a user-designated thermal source (as a function of both wavelength and time), with optional convective (air stream) cooling. Specific heats and thermal conductivities of the materials can be specified, in general, as functions of both temperature and radiation wavelength.
