Zusammenfassung:A Naval Weapons Center (NWC) thermal standard was installed at Fort Belvoir, VA, and monitored for a year. Extreme temperatures of 129 degrees F and 113 degrees F occurred at the top surface and center of the thermal standard, respectively. Data were compared to thermal standard data from prior investigations. Methodologies involving data display, sampling strategies, and predictive capabilities were examined. The original predictive equation was examined, and it was found that a derivation was more suitable at Fort Belvoir, indicating that geographic and/or climatic limitations to certain analytical methods could exist.
