  2. Sizing • Size of nose cone based on historical data from Vanguard rocket • Ltotal – 12.64 m • Radius – 0.3344 m • Lnose_cone – 1.071 m • Surface Area – 1.178 m AAE 450 Spring 2008 Structures

  3. Materials • Aluminum – low heat applications, relatively inexpensive • Titanium – strong, high temperature usage • Magnesium Alloys – low density, low heat applications • Molybdenum – very high heat capabilities, maintains strength • Carbon-Carbon – ceramic, light, very expensive • Hafnium Diboride – ceramic, light, very high heat capabilities Future Work • Ceramics, combinations of materials, aero-thermal implications, pricing AAE 450 Spring 2008 Structures
