Abstract
In order to enhance the ability of engineers to quickly and easily evaluate new heat shield materials and construction methods for the underhood and underbody regions of the vehicle, a standardized rig test is being developed. The issues involved in the development of this test method are discussed as well as the important parameters. Test results for different heat shield materials are also presented.
