The thermal dissipation of radiation is main heat shield mechanism for non-ablative thermal protection materials on hypersonic vehicles withstanding high temperature dynamic heating cycle during endo-atmospheric ascent, cruise and reentry. Therefore, it is necessary to know the thermal radiative properties of the material under the simulated high temperature dynamic heating conditions on the ground. The emissivity depends on the surface state and its temperature. A new simultaneous measurement technology of emissivity and varying surface temperature is proposed under high temperature dynamic heating conditions. This new technology solved synchronous measurement problems by utilizing spectral signal of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The calibration of different temperature ranges, the background disturbances, the influences on temperature measurement by wavelength range and its corresponding fluctuations of measurement signal, were thoroughly investigated. The measured results of steel and graphite as reference materials proved the effectiveness of this simultaneous measurement technology and showed great potential in engineering applications under high temperature dynamic heating conditions.
