Because the SRB plume is hot and erosive, a robust Tungsten Piston Calorimeter was developed to compliment measurements made by off-the- shelf sensors. Witness materials were installed and their melting and erosion response to the Mach 2 / 4000°F / 4-second duration plume was observed. The data show that the specification used for the design of the MFD thermal protection system over-predicts heat rates by a factor of 3 and under-predicts pressures by a factor of 2. These findings will be used to baseline NASA Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and develop innovative MFD designs for the Space Launch System (SLS) before this vehicle becomes operational in 2017.

  • State Overview "Aerodrome Operating Minimums
    State Overview “Aerodrome Operating Minimums – Jeppesen” (updated 1 Feb 2021) The following tables indicate which Aerodrome Operating Minimums (AOM) rules will be applied for a specific State/Country when converting the Aerodrome Operating Minima after Jan 2020. Even if there is no State AOM concept available for the country, there might be take-off or landing visibilities published for a specific airport or for specific approach procedures (AD Characteristics, Instrument Approach Procedure, Departure Procedure Sources,..). Therefore, Jeppesen may have to depict a State label on a specific chart, even there is a Std label on all other charts. For Military procedures AOM may be published on procedure source, even though there is no AOM concept in place for Civil procedures. Existing 10-9S pages for EASA AIR OPS operators are kept and updated to allow operators to compare EASA AIR OPS minimums against the minimums based on ICAO Doc 9365. New 10-9S pages are only published if requested by an operator.
