Abstract

As carbon/carbon composites usually work at high temperature environments, material ablation inevitably occurs, which further affects the system stability and safety. In this paper, the thermal response of a thermoprotective four-directional carbon/carbon (4D C/C) composite is studied herein using a numerical model focusing on volume ablation. The model is based on energy- and mass-conservation principles as well as on the thermal decomposition equation of solid materials. The thermophysical properties of the C/C composite during the ablation process are calculated, and the thermal response during ablation, including temperature distribution, density, decomposition rate, char layer thickness, and mass loss, are quantitatively predicted. The present numerical study provides a fundamental understanding of the ablative mechanisms of a 4D C/C composite, serving as a reference and basis for further designs and optimizations of thermoprotective materials.
