Abstract
Catalytic heating can be a significant portion of the thermal load experienced by a body during re-entry. Under the auspices of the NATO Research and Technology Organisation Applied Vehicle Technologies Panel Task Group AVT-136 an assessment of the current state-of-the-art in the experimental characterization and numerical simulation of catalysis on high-temperature material surfaces has been conducted. This paper gives an extraction of the final report for this effort, showing the facilities and capabilities worldwide to assess catalysis data. A corresponding summary for the modeling activities is referenced in this article.
