BACKGROUND STATEMENT

Obscurants such as dust and smoke from artillery impacts and

static detonations will cause serious degradation in the performance

of electro-optical systems. The series of DIRT tests was designed to

investigate various properties of smoke and dust which contribute to

degradation of system performance. DIRT is an acronym for Dusty

Infrared Transmission. DIRT-II was performed at White Sands Missile

Range (WSMR) by the Atmospheric Science Laboratory (ASL) in conjunc-

tion with Explosion Effects Division, U. S. Army Engineers Waterways

Experiment Station. One of the principal objectives of the tests was

the determination of electro-optical transmission through dust and

smoke clouds generated by static detonation and artillery rounds.

These optical transmission tests were performed by the Naval Research

Laboratory (NRL), sponsored by ASL, and conducted at three visible

and infrared spectral regions discussed in this report.

TRANSMITTANCE MEASUREMENTS AT DIRT-II

I. INTRODUCTION

1_Thu.s a final reporti on the NRL experiments at the DIRT IItests sponsior by fe-fmiospheric Sciences Laboratory at the WhiteSands Missile Range in July 1979. The NRL experiment was designed tomeasure spectral transmittance through smoke and dust clouds generatedby static detonations of various explosive charges and also by impactof artillery rounds. Spectral transmission data as a function oftime was obtained for 63 events comprised of static detonations andartillery rounds. No data were obtained for a few events because ofwind conditions and equipment malfunction.

II. INSTRUMENTATION

The transmissometer used in the DIRT-II tests consisted of asource, receiver and associated recording and data processingequipment. A 600 watt halogen filled narrow filament tungstenlamp in a 2h" diameter searchlight served as the source and had abear width of 20 mr. Filament emission provided energy of 0.55 .mand 1.06 Pm while the hot quartz envelop at 10000C provided energyat 10.37 Pm. Radiations were modulated at 750 Hz by a mechanicallydriven slotted chopper cage. Figure 1 shows the source assemblywhich was located 2 km from the receiver.

The receiver assembly consisted of a two-detector section for0.55 lim and 1.06 lim and a coaxial section for 10.6 Pm. The two-detector section consisted of 2 Si detectors, filter, beam splitterand lens; each detector had a FOV of 0.6 mr, equivalent to a fieldof about 60 cm diameter in the test area. A HgCdTe detector atthe focus of a 60 cm diameter, f/2.5 mirror detected 10.37 I'mradiation. The filter spectral half bandwidths were: 0.55pa - 3.0 rnm1.06 Pm - 0.01 Pm and 10.37Im - 0.15 Im. This section also had aFOV of 0.6 mr. Figure 2 shows the detector assembly and associatedoptics located in the receiver trailer. Leg supports resting on theground decouple the receiver from all trailer motion.

The transmitter source was located at the south end of theoptical path and pointed toward the receiver at the north end 2 kmaway. All live firing impacts and static detonations took placein a 200x300 meter area midway between transmitter and receiver sitesand only rarely directly below the optical path. All data were

Manucrpt ubmitted Aprfl 24, 1980.

obtained as the dust and smoke clouds moved through the optical beamabout 10 m above ground.

The recording equipment was started at -3 min to determine the100% and 0% transmission signal levels. Turnoff after the eventoccurred when the 100% level was re-established, for most events atabout +2 minutes. Figure 3 shows receiver electronics and datarecording equipment.

A visual telephotometer was used to monitor path attenuationduring the test day. Figure 4 shows the telephotometer located inthe receiver trailer. A large van, shown in Fig. 1, served as thevisual target. Path visual extinction data is shown in Table 1.

A. Real-Time Acquisition of Transmissometer Data

The NRL transmissometer data were sampled and processed in real-time with a Hewlett-Packard model 9825A calculator. This calculatorwas configured with a HP model 98035A real-time clock and was inter-faced to a digital voltmeter through an HP model 98033A BCD interface.

The calculator scanned the output voltage from each of thethree transmissometer signal channels once each second. The voltagefrom each channel was processed to correct for that channel's 0%-transmission signal-level and its 100%-transmission level. Thenthe data for that one second interval were printed on paper tape andstored in the calculator's memory. At the conclusion of each DIRT-IIevent the stored transmission data were recorded on magnetic tape.Table II shows the relative location of each data-acquisition stepwithin the overall DIRT-II fire-control countdown. Graphs of theresulting transmission data appear elsewhere in this report. Weestimate the accuracy of the transmittance measurement to be about+ 5%.

B. Results and Discussion

Useful transmittance data were obtained on 63 events: 22 artilleryshots and 41 static detonations. Table III lists a transmission datasummary. Figure 5 thru Figure 69 are curves of transmission vstime for 0.55 tm, 1.06 im and 10.37 pm for the 63 events. Tabularlistings of spectral transmission vs. time were also developed buthave not been included in this report. Transmission data for 1.06 imin most cases was similar and equal to 0.55 jM. Since the trans-mitter beam was 10 m above ground at the test area, the dust cloudwas sampled when it rose into the beam or was blown across. Dwelltime in the beam varied from a few seconds to 2 minutes. In manycases a thin low cloud appeared about 1 sec after detonation. Inmost tests the beam was visually opaque when the cloud entered thebeam, indicating a visual transmission of <.01%. Visual opaquelevel was determined by observing the searchlight source, in the 100%mode through calibrated neutral density filters. Useful data were

2

obtained later, during the period when the cloud in the test volumewas diffuse and the visual transmittance was > 1%. During this periodthe 10.37 vm channel showed higher transmittance values than thevisible channel in more than 50% of the events. This is especiallynotable in events Arty A-i, Arty A-13, Arty B-7, A-11, B-7, E-4 andE-9 where 10.37 um transmittances as much as 20% to 100% greaterthan 0.55 jm were observed. The higher ratio occurred at lowertransmittance levels.

There are indications that IR transmittance of smoke and dust

clouds in wet soil events is lower than visible transmittancepresumably because strong liquid water absorption at the IR wave-length of 10.37 pm. For example, test C-2 in wet soil shows lowerinfrared transmittance in the first 13 seconds possibly because ofmoist soil particles present in the test volume. At +8 secondstransmittance was 10% visible vs 3% infrared. This effect was alsoobserved for 7 seconds during test C-1 and for 19 seconds in testC-8. These effects were observed only on 26 July and 27 July aftera strong rain storm on the evening of 25 July. At later times in arun when the moist particles have drifted or settled out of the testvolume, the spectral transmission ratio is similar to that observedin dry soil tests. Based on bulk water attenuation coefficient of785 cm-1 at 10.37 m,1 the increase in attenuation is attributed toliquid water in the moist soil. Definitive data would be obtained

from measurements made in wet and dry soils at 3.0 pm where theliquid water bulk attenuation coefficient is 15x greater.

Examination of tabular data listings and curves of smoke anddust clouds generated in dry soils by static detonation and artilleryimpact seem to have similar spectral transmittance characteristics.In most cases IR shows higher transmission than visible during thesame time period and cloud volume.

C. Conclusions and Recommendations

Through the light and diffuse regions of the clouds, IR at10.37 pm showed greater transmittance than visible in about 50% ofthe events. Because of instrument limitations, no relfable data wasobtained through the dark portions of the clouds. Modifications tothe receiver system, for example parallel logarithmic channels, areneeded to obtain data at low transmittance values through the darkclouds.

Turbulence fluctuations in the transmissometer beam above thehot desert floor introduced estimated uncertainties of + 5% in thedata. Test operation during period of quiet turbulence will reducethe noise.

Transmittance of the low lying diffuse cloud generated atdetonation time is of particular interest because it will give dataon soil dust uncontaminated by combustion products. This should beinvestigated at some future test.

Another feature that would seem to require further investigationis the spectral transmittance properties of clouds generated in wetsoil conditions. This preliminary work shows IR suffering moreattenuation than visible in wet soil conditions which is unlike drysoil conditions where IR shows higher transmission.
