An experimental simulation is performed for the mechanism of the destruction of carbon heat-shielding materials (polycrystalline graphite and carbon composites) with a rough surface passed by a supersonic high-temperature air flow. At high velocities of the oncoming flow, the roughness of such materials may correspond to the thickness of the boundary layer. Such properties of the surface contribute...
