TPSSizer (aka TPSSZR) - Vehicle TPS sizing program using FIAT
(ARC-15016-1A)
Overview
TPSSizer is a Thermal Protection System (TPS) sizing tool developed at ARC for use in conceptual level through detailed design level analysis. TPS sizing methodologies and data exchange interfaces with supporting disciplines were developed for TPSSizer. Additionally, the tool introduced improvement to prior art with the automatic generation of TPS stackups, automatic generation of aerothermal environment files, maintenance of consistent material properties descriptions, the capability to simultaneously evaluate multiple nominal and abort flight trajectories and the development of methodologies for the application of appropriate design margins.
Notes: Requirements: Also requires FIAT and CBAero code
