Key Points
Heat flux measurements indicate high levels of heat transfer to material samples in combustor-relevant conditions, particularly downstream of the anchored flame.
Testing showed outcomes in both non-reacting and reacting environments, confirming the chamber's operational reliability with heated air.
The innovative combustor design allows for flexible fuel use and maintains wide flame stability limits for effective material testing.
Characterization of silicon carbide samples under various operating conditions highlights CMC's potential in extreme environments.
