/hiːt ˈbæriər/C1formaltechnical
  • ruФизический или метафорический предел, связанный с экстремальной жарой, часто обозначающий тепловой порог, который материалы или системы могут выдержать до разрушения, или в аэрокосмической отрасли — точка, в которой аэродинамический нагрев становится критическим.

A physical or metaphorical limit related to extreme heat, often referring to the thermal threshold that materials or systems can withstand before failing, or in aerospace, the point at which aerodynamic heating becomes critical.

  1. Thermal limit in aerodynamicsC1formal

    The physical limitation caused by extreme heat generated by air friction when an object travels at very high speeds, especially near or above the speed of sound.

    ruТепловой барьер

    • Early aircraft designers struggled to overcome the heat barrier.
    • The heat barrier is a critical challenge for hypersonic flight.
    • Engineers developed special materials to withstand the heat barrier.
