A simulation of a 3.9-m solid rocket motor (SRM) with a 12.7-mm steel case, larger than both the Titan and space shuttle SRMs, was used to demonstrate and evaluate the performance of supervoltage computor tomography (SVCT). The attenuation accuracy and the contrast sensitivity of the images are found to be as good as, or better than, those of many lower-energy computer tomography systems. Density profiles through the images do not show any evidence of a cupping artifact. The high quality of the images demonstrates that, with proper design, problems associated with the large dynamic range of the X-ray signal can be effectively solved.
