A thermal energy storage and exchanger device includes, a plurality of horizontal, superimposed, spaced plates defining a plurality of clear, horizontal, continuous, uniformly spaced flow passageways between them; and introduction means selectively operable for driving a thermal energy exchanger fluid horizontally through the flow passageways to introduce thermal energy to the plates in one mode and extract thermal energy from the plates in a second mode; the plates being vertically spaced and horizontally oriented for minimizing convection and heat exchange in a third, storage mode when the thermal energy exchanger fluid resides in the flow passageways undriven by the introduction means.

Thermal energy storage and exchanger device

A digital computer for guiding the flight of a ballistic missile through instrumentation of a Q Matrix. The computer may be described as being the digital counterpart of a mechanical differential analyzer in that it is made up of a number of appropriately interconnected integrators which generate the solution of the particular equation or set of equations being solved. An initial value of velocity-to-be-gained is inserted into the computer and then by means of accelerometer outputs, multipliers, adders and integrators, samples of the missile's velocity are compared with the velocity-to-be-gained to generate output signals to control or guide the trajectory of the missile during its powered flight.
