Identify
the exposure temperature for a given load, and the characteristic
|
|
|
|
time
associated with that load
|
|
|
|
n |
Cooling: usually use the end temperature, and the
time to equilibrate
|
|
|
n |
Ignition
transient: use the exposure
temperature and the ignition rise
|
|
|
|
time
|
|
|
|
n |
Shock: exposure temperature and the time to
peak pulse amplitude
|
|
|
| w |
Calculate
the log reduced time, and look up properties

Example: Cool to –30F in 48 hours

n |
Log(t) =
log(48 hours * 60 min/hr) = +3.459
|
|
|
|
n |
Log(aT)
= -[-416.42+(5.82)(-30)]/[197.3+(-30)] = +3.533
|
|
|
|
n |
Log t/aT
= +3.459 – 3.533 = -0.074 minutes
