Synopsis "The Role of Ceramics and Ceramic Matrix Composites in NASA's Advanced Space Propulsion Programs"

In recent years, NASA has embarked on several new and exciting efforts in the exploration and use of space. The successful accomplishment of many planned missions and projects is dependent upon the development and deployment of previously unproven propulsion systems. Key to many of the propulsion systems is the use of structural ceramics and ceramic matrix composites. In spite of their promise, a number of programmatic and technical hurdles remain before the potential of ceramic materials can be realized. A programmatic environment which focuses on relatively short term hardware demonstration programs precludes traditional longer term material's development efforts. The challenge oftentimes becomes one of engineering ceramics into proposed missions. This is dependent upon a fundamental understanding of processing, degradation and design issues unique to space vehicle design and operations. A review of the general missions and benefits of utilizing ceramics and ceramic matrix composites will be presented. The design parameters and operating conditions will be presented for both specific missions/vehicles and classes of components. Key technical challenges and opportunities are identified along with suggested paths for addressing them.
