Thermophysical Properties of Selected Aerospace Materials. Part 1. Thermal Radiative Properties

Abstract

This volume presents the most comprehensively compiled experimental data and the critically evaluated and recommended values for the thermal radiative properties (hemispherical, normal, angular) spectral emittance, reflectance, absorptance, and transmittance of twenty-seven selected aircraft/ spacecraft structural materials of technological interest. Each subproperty is treated with respect to both wavelength and temperature dependences whenever possible. In the compilation of experimental data, all available data covering from the photographic region of the spectrum up to 100 microns are included. The recommended values resulting from critical evaluation, analysis, and synthesis of the available data and information cover the wavelength range of present interest from visible region to the infrared, if possible. Furthermore, the recommended values as a function of temperature are given for four particularly useful wavelengths.
