Radiative absorption properties of a number of propellants have been determined in the visible and near UV spectral regions. These data are required for evaluating the radiation energy distribution within a bed from a plasma. These data and a radiation propagation code(Monte Carlo, non-sequential ray tracing) will be used to determine the radiative energy distribution within a propellant bed. Heat flux/fluence gages are described that will be used to measure and differentiate between the convective and radiative energy delivered to a propellant bed. 1, record 3, English, - radiative%20propagation%20code

Pour être utilisables dans les codes de propagation des rayonnements, les sections efficaces doivent obligatoirement subir un traitement à la fois physique, numérique et informatique. Celui-ci découle de la nature des informations stockées dans les évaluations, de la nature du problème physique étudié et des méthodes numériques implémentées dans les codes de transport utilisés. 1, record 3, French, - code%20de%20propagation%20des%20rayonnements
