“…For several decades, Alifanov spent substantial efforts [ 45 , 46 , 47 ] on the determination of the thermo-physical properties of TPS materials (mostly non ablative) through the design of ad hoc testing facilities and then exploiting IHCP-based algorithms. As an example, in [ 47 ] Alifanov presented a work aimed at the verification of the procedure of determining the thermo-physical properties of non-ablative lightweight ceramic TPS materials [ 1 ] under representative experimental conditions through the use of the in-depth temperature profiles.…”

Carbon/Phenolic Composites (CPCs) are essential to manufacture many portions of the nozzle assembly of Solid Rocket Motors (SRMs) which are essential both to preserve the independent access to space as well as for the homeland security. In our research, a feasible approach aimed at preliminary retrieving the in-plane and out-plane thermal diffusivity of CPCs through the Oxy-Acetylene Torch (OAT) tests was validated. The proposed approach showed to be effective and able to bypass some limitations of common protocols, especially in terms of capability to determine the thermal diffusivity of CPCs at high heating rates. A comprehensive work of comparison of the obtained data with state-of-the-art CPCs such as MX-4926 and FM-5014 has also been carried out, evidencing the effectiveness of the proposed method.
