Title: THERMAL PROPERTIES OF HIGH TEMPERATURE MATERIALS. Period covered June 1, 1956 to June 30, 1957

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4336594

The objective of this program was the measurement of the high temperature thermal properties of materials. The materials investigated were Hastelloy B, Hastelloy C, Satellite 21, Stainless Steel type 17-7 P.H., Stainless Steel type 446, Sillcon Carbide, 60-15 Cr (ASTM B83-46), and beryllium. The thermal conductivity, specific heat, and linear coefficient of thermal expansion were measured from 1OOO deg to 3OOO deg F, or the melting point of the material, whichever was lower. All measurements were made in the Heat Transfer Laboratory of the Propulsion and Fluid Mechanics Research Department, Armour Research Foundation of Illinois Institute of Technology. Both the experimental measurements and the results of the conversion of these measurements to the desired physical properties are given. (auth)
