Flexible Thermal Protection SystemOverview
• Flexible TPS (FTPS) Benefits– Larger Heatshield
– Reduced Ballistic Coefficient
– Greater Payload Mass Delivered
– Higher Landing Altitude
• FTPS Requirements– Flexible (Foldable)
– Handle Rigors of Packing and Stowage
– Handle Aerothermal Loads
– Light Weight
– Compact to Small Volume

Flexible Thermal Protection SystemsComponents
A FTPS is Constructed from Three Basic Components
Insulator – Heat Load
Outer Cloth – Mechanical Loads
Gas Barrier - Permeability
FTPS Materials and Function1. Outer Cloth – Handles Mechanical Loads
• Aerodynamic Shear
• Protects Insulator from Abrasion and Handling Issues
2. Insulator – Manages Heat Load
• Insulator Sized to Maintain Supporting Structure at Desired Temperature
3. Gas Barrier – Prevents Hot Gas Penetration to Support Structure

Previous Aerothermal Testing
• Tested in Three Different Facilities– 8-Foot High Temperature Tunnel
• High Shear Force
• Limited Heat Flux
– Laser Hardened Materials Evaluation Laboratory• No Flow
• Optical Property Uncertainty

Testing Methodology
• Focusing on IRVE-3 and HEART Trajectories– Validation and Verification for model Development
– FTPS Development for HEART Vehicle
• Max-Max for Quick Screening– Over-Test of Combined Heating and Pressure
– Can Lead to False Negatives
– Multiple Material Systems
• Stagnation and Shear Testing– Matching Heat Flux and Pressure
