| Popis: |
This paper discusses the use of smoke obscurants as countermeasures against high energy lasers (HEL). Potential success of the smoke does not depend only the performance of the smoke. The transmission loss in the smoke is part of a chain of system components, including warning sensors, smoke launchers, etc.. The core of the paper deals with experimental work on the following research questions: - Does smoke attenuate an incoming beam of a HEL? - Does the HEL affect the smoke itself? The experimental set-up with the TNO 30kW HEL and the scale model for the smoke transmission path will be shown. Selected experimental results will be shown and discussed. Finally we will compare the results to theoretical calculations and we will analyze the properties of an ideal HEL attenuation smoke. |
