The grill has been removed to indicate depth of furnace, RECENT DEVELOPMENTS in aircraft design involve the use, in large assemblies, of a wide range of heat resisting alloys, each requiring its own special heat treatment. Here is an example of the facilities available within the Lucas Organization to meet the progressive needs of the aero gas turbine industry. Illustrated is a pit-type, electrically heated, air circulating furnace, capable of controlled temperatures of up to 1120°C. It is used for the heat treatment of exhaust units and jet pipes fabricated from Nimonic 80 and 90 sheet material. Being withdrawn from the furnace is a Nimonic 80 jet pipe after precipitation hardening at a temperature controlled to 5° Centigrade. Jet pipes, 18 ft. long and 4 ft. in diameter, can be accom- modated at high process temperatures. And jet pipes, 20 ft. long, are accommodated at lower process temperatures.
