About this eBook
Abstract: It is demonstrated with the aid of similitude arguments that a model fired from a hypervelocity gun upstream through a special supersonic nozzle should undergo motion and experience aerodynamic heating and resulting thermal stresses like those encountered by a long-range ballistic missile entering the earth's atmosphere. This combination of hypervelocity gun and supersonic nozzle is therefore termed an "Atmospheric Entry Simulator."
