Evolution of the NWC (Naval Weapons Center) Thermal Standard. Part 5. Summary: Thermal Standard Development and Applications.
Abstract
This report is the fifth in a series of reports covering the development and application of a temperature-measuring device, designated the NWC thermal standard, which can be used to evaluate the thermal response of ordnance. Part 1 of this report series described the theoretical concepts of a thermal standard. Part 2 presented a comparison of predicted and experimental data. Part 3 described use of the thermal standard to determine field thermal response of ordnance stored unsheltered. Part 4 presented the results of several years of data collection in the field, using the thermal standard, along with graphs and analysis of the data. This part of the report series, Part 5, contains a summary of the work done with the thermal standard temperature-measuring device. Development of the device is described, and its applications are discussed. Future uses are suggested.
