AIRCRAFT IN-FLIGHT HEATING,

Abstract

The basic questions of aerodynamic heating of supersonic aircraft as expounded and peculiarities of structures brought about by this heating are considered. The author mentions sources of heating of aircraft, determination of temperature fields of supersonic aircraft, rockets and spaceships an example of satellites, the properties of materials at high temperatures and presents data on new materials and coverings able to sustain increased thermal loads. A significant place in this work is occupied also by questions of durability of structures of aircraft in conditions of high temperatures. Furthermore, the book mentions how, on the basis of correct analysis and manifold calculation of phenomena of aerodynamic heating, it is possible to create corresponding efficient designs. Explanations are illustrated by examples of designs of supersonic aircraft and rockets, and also engines of different systems and equipment. The book is based on materials of foreign literature.
