From: "Erica Raine" To: Subject: minutes 10/09/02 Date: Wednesday, October 09, 2002 10:20 PM Minutes from the team meeting Oct. 9, 2002: Summary of Discussion topics: Nick - NOX should be liquid. But, NOX is gaseous at 300K and a liquid at 292K LabScale: Otto wants 4 labscale tests. Need to vary only two parameters, flow rate and burntime. Therefore, we need an ACCURATE method to time/control burn time. Will be <12 inches in length Will be ~3 inch diameter Need ignition system (stick with ammonia percholoate, aluminum mesh (?), propane and match) TO DO: Mike: understand last year's ignition system Otto: HTPB pressure dependance, flow rate info Nick: mech dept. testing, feed system cooling (?) Erica: EEF Dustin: Nozzle material, silane Tala: Find the Labscale paper Action Items: -Ignition for labscale -precision timing for labscale -HTPB pressure dependance -nozzle material for labscale, as it won't be a real "nozzle" -IPDI/water contamination -sprinkler system pipes -mech. combustion lab (pending answer from Mel Branch) So that's a brief run-down on what we talked about. People may be meeting sometime on Sunday. I'm going to submit the EEF proposal tomorrow.
