    abstract = {The spatial and temporal temperature distribution across the the sheet membrane, which serves as a closing of the inflator filled with pressurized Helium, due to the heat flux impressed by the hot combustion gas jet impinging on its surface is calculated. As the main objective, this calculation shall provide an input for a subsequent conservative estimate of the mechanical fatigue of the sheet and, consequently, its burst, intended to be carried out by the customer. As the highest temperature (which are critical for the mechanical behavior of the material) are expected on the surface of the membrane near the stagnation point of the impinging jet (apex of the membrane), it proves sufficient to restrict the analysis to the vicinity of the axis of the jet. Most important, in order to obtain a conservative estimate of the temperature distribution, it is assumed that the temperature at the surface of the membrane is below its melting temperature. In connection with some further simplifications justified by the purpose of this study, this supposition allows for a most simple analytical approximate solution of the problem.}
