Arcs Test Team receives Technical Achievement Award
Arnold Engineering Development Complex’s (AEDC) Arcs Test Team was presented a Technical Achievement Award for its originality, creativity and innovation in completing a recent test in the H2 arc heater facility. The team created and successfully implemented a new test method for stagnation coupon testing based on interfaces already available at AEDC, which minimized costs to the customer by using remaining project resources to reduce future risk. AEDC Commander Col. Raymond Toth (second from left, front row), AEDC Executive Director Dr. Douglas Blake (far left, second row) and AEDC Chief Technologist Dr. Edward Kraft (far right, second row) were on hand to present this award to the Arcs Team and congratulate the group on a job well done.
