In the present paper, a modelling procedure of the thermal protection system designed for a conceptual Reusable Launch Vehicle is presented. A special parametric model, featuring a scalar field irradiated by a set of bidimensional soft objects, is developed and used to assign an almost arbitrary distribution of insulating materials over the vehicle surface. The model fully exploits the autoblending capability of soft objects and allows a rational distribution of thermal coating materials using a limited number of parameters. Applications to different conceptual vehicle configurations of an assigned thickness map, and material layout show the flexibility of the model. The model is finally integrated in the framework of a multidisciplinary analysis to perform a trajectory-based TPS sizing, subjected to fixed thermal constraints.

A Thermal protection system is used to protect the rocket from the heat generated by the hot gases. A thermal boot is used as the thermal protection system at the outside of the nozzle to protect the flex seal. The objective of the present work is to design the thermal protection system for flex seal using different composite materials for single time of flight and to study the ablation of the materials. The problem is modelled using commercial ANSYS software. 3-D Axi-symmetric transient thermal analysis is performed for the flex seal along with thermal protection system made of composite materials. The initial and boundary conditions are applied to meet the industrial requirement. From this analysis, thermal protection system made of different composite materials is studied and one is suggested based on ablation and weight reduction.
