Popis: Carbon-ceramic composites are considered promising materials to be used in thermal protection shields of innovative descent vehicles that are currently being designed. The development of thermal shield material requires modelling its thermal-phase state under operational conditions. In this paper, physical and mathematical models are proposed for analysis of the destruction and radiation-conductive heat transfer in a porous carbon-ceramic composite material consisting of carbon fibres covered by silicon carbide. The models take into account all main physical and chemical processes of heating up and thermo-chemical destruction. A software package DMA based on the finite element method was developed, and modelling of heating up and destruction of the material was conducted. It was established that when the temperature was above 800 °С, the contribution of the radiation heat exchange became considerable. A comparison of the surface microstructures obtained through modelling and gas-dynamic testing in a plasmatron facility showed their qualitative agreement, while the mass loss did not exceed 16%.
