The 9 x 15 Foot Low-Speed Wind Tunnel (LSWT) is the most utilized low-speed propulsion acoustic facility in the world. It is the only national facility that can simulate takeoff, approach, and landing in a continuous subsonic flow wind tunnel environment. This facility specializes in evaluating aerodynamic performance and acoustic characteristics of fans, nozzles, inlets, propellers, and hot gas-ingestion of advanced Short Takeoff Vertical Landing (STOVL) systems.
