The missile launcher system consists of the green missile launch tube containing the missile, a grip stock and a cylindrical thermal battery.
22.
This action releases a spring-loaded firing pin which fires the percussion cap on an MC4246A thermal battery, powering it up.
23.
However, in a non-phase change Encapsulated Thermal Battery the temperature of the substance is changed without inducing a phase change.
24.
Electrical power from the thermal battery is sufficient to " fry " the internal circuitry of the bomb, destroying critical mechanisms without causing detonation.
25.
When the gunner fires the HOT missile, the missile activates a thermal battery, flares and a small gas generator spins up the gyro.
26.
One of the key properties of an Encapsulated Thermal Battery is its Volumetric heat capacity ( VHC ), also termed volume-specific heat capacity.
27.
The outer crust of the Earth is a Thermal Battery that maintains a median temperature which is the same as the average air temperature at that location.
28.
It is powered by a thermal battery and its on-board computer allows the transmitters to radiate in either deception mode or noise ( smart or barrage ).
29.
This thermal battery is usually slowly charged over a period of about 30 60 minutes for rapid use when needed ( e . g ., 10 15 minutes ).
30.
In each case, thermal batteries were activated, and on two occasions, tritium-deuterium " boost " gas was injected into the warhead pits, partially arming them.
