Abstract
An attempt has been made to outline the areas where progress in various aspects of high temperature technology would produce significant industrial advantages. The aspects covered range from the possibilities of using the heat lost by conventional industries through to areas of newer technologies, such as fusion reactors and magnetohydrodynamic power generation, where a breakthrough in high temperature technology would encourage their useas viable commercial systems. The advantages of increased temperatures for greater efficiencies and the possibilities of using lower grade or alternate fuels are discussed together with the problems posed both in materials terms and in terms of the technical limitations of process control.
