Abstract

Understanding the spallation phenomenon is crucial to accurately designing and sizing thermal protection systems. Thus, multiple arc-jet campaigns have been conducted to better understand this process and the corresponding mass loss. Initial estimations of particle size and mass loss required multiple assumptions to be made. Therefore, further investigation through the physical capturing of spalled particles, along with imaging via high-speed cameras, was conducted to validate these results.
