  • Abstract
    THE INTENSE HEATING of aircraft and missiles flashing through Earth´s atmosphere at speeds above 5,000 miles per hour imposes structural design problems. At supersonic speeds, air vehicles must withstand temperatures above 2,500 F. To investigate and overcome structural limitations, the Westinghouse Electric Corporation has developed a complete elevated-temperature test facility.
