Measurements of the Total Absorptivity for Solar Radiation of Several Engineering Materials

Abstract
Values are presented of the total solar absorptivity of several porous materials presently being considered for transpiration cooling of high-speed vehicles. To specify these surfaces photomicrographs and a chemical analysis are presented. Two schemes used in the measurement of the absorptivity values are described in the text, a comparison technique and an integrating radiometer method.
