Quality evaluation of the ceramic material for the aircraft radome shell by pressurization method
The procedure for the evaluation of allowable values of ceramic shell proof pressure as one of the basic rejection parameters in the radome check tests has been developed using Weibull brittle failure model. The calculations of maximum pressure values for two types of radomes with the shells made of quartz ceramics NIASIT and glass ceramics OTM-357 are presented in the paper. The results of proof pressure express-evaluation are presented in a graphical form.
