An engineer checks the condition of a Trent 100 engine during testing. The test looked at the engine in icing conditions at altitude for FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) compliance, Icing certification testing at simulated altitude conditions is a capability unique to AEDC, especially for high airflow engines like the Trent 1000.

A European Space agency probe that landed on Titan, Saturn’s largest moon on Jan. 14, 2005, was tested in the 16-foot transonic wind tunnel at the Air Force’s Arnold Engineering Development Center in 1993. The mission of the Huygens probe, named after Dutch astronomer Christian Huygens who discovered Titan in 1655, is to collect atmospheric data from Titan. The probe landed by parachute. The wind tunnel model of the probe was fitted with scaled main and pilot parachutes. The chutes were opened at speeds ranging from 350 to 1,000 mph in the wind tunnel while information was gathered on their inflation characteristics. The NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Cassini Spacecraft carried the probe to the vicinity of Titan. The Huygens test model was designed and fabricated by Micro Craft Inc. in Tullahoma, Tenn., for the GE Aerospace Corp., which was under contract to the European Space Agency.

The Airbus Industries A380 in an artist’s concept in flight will be the world’s largest passenger aircraft. The passenger version of the aircraft is designed to carry 555 passengers on two levels and is scheduled to enter service in 2006. It will be followed by a freighter version two years later. The recently tested Rolls-Royce Trent 900 and the GE-Pratt & Whitney Engine Alliance GP7200 are the two choices customers have for the engines for the massive aircraft.

Nickolas Galyen, an engineer in Aerospace Testing Alliance’s Integrated Test and Evaluation department, aligns a calibration target during a series of tests to validate the use of stereo particle image velocimetry (PIV) in the 4-foot transonic wind tunnel at Arnold Engineering Development Center. Images of the precisely machined target are used to spatially calibrate particle images to measure three-dimensional velocity airflow fields.
