Nondestructive Characterization of Thermal Shock and Oxidation-Induced Damage by Flash Diffusivity

The effect of thermal shock and oxidation-induced damage on the thermal diffusivity of unidirectional Nicalon-LAS glass–ceramic composites is presented in this study. The data presented show that thermal diffusivity measurements provide a sensitive nondestructive method whereby damage progression may be assessed. Samples were exposed to isothermal oxidation and thermal shock environments. In addition, combined cycles of oxidation and thermal shock were also evaluated. The thermal diffusivity transverse to the fibers was measured to detect changes in material integrity. Significant decreases up to 23% were observed in the thermal diffusivity of the material.
