This test provides supplemental information on the reaction sensitivity of components to rapid pressurization heating when pneumatically impacted in a pressurized GOX system. The test can be performed to meet any of the following objectives:
- To characterize the reaction sensitivity of a component at a specified pressure.
- To determine the pressure threshold for ignition of a component over a range of pressures.
- To determine the temperature reaction threshold of a component at a specified pressures.
The test specimens shall be subjected to gaseous fluid impact at 1.25 times Maximum Operating Pressure (MOP), followed by functional tests and inspection for evidence of ignition…Learn more
