Radiation Test

Middle East Technical University – Defocusing Beam Line (METU-DBL) project is an irradiation facility providing 15 MeV to 30 MeV kinetic energy protons for testing various high radiation level applications, ranging from Hi-Lumi LHC upgrade, space electronic components to nuclear material research. The project located inside the premises of the TAEA (Turkish Atomic Energy Agency) SANAEM (Saraykoy Nuclear Education and Research Center) close to Ankara, provides users a wide selectable flux menu (105–1010 p/cm2/s). The facility is now being commissioned and the facility will be providing a large test area (20 cm x 15 cm) for material, detector and electronics tests. The proton beam is monitored along the beamline using aluminum oxide screens and the flux and uniformity is measured using three detectors attached to the robotic system for cross- checks. A fiber scintillator detector scans the large irradiation area while small area diamond detector and Timepix3 detector are used for spot checks for calibration. Several samples can be radiated simultaneously inside the irradiation area and the robotic system provides 5 separate holders for samples which can be moved in or out, providing users flexibility for the desired fluence. This talk will first introduce METU- DBL as a radiation test facility, then discuss the radiation monitoring of the beam area and the radiation room, while highlighting how this facility can be used for future testing of materials for radiation tolerance.

Subsonic Nozzle

The Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC) is installing a freejet test capability into the Aero-propulsion Systems Test Facility (ASTF). The freejet will provide the capability for ground determination of turbine engine and aircraft inlet compatibility by utilizing full-scale inlets and engines as test articles in a simulated flight environment. The details of the design, installation, and projected testing capability are described for a 57 ft2 supersonic nozzle and a 77 ft2 subsonic nozzle. Support systems for mechanically pitching and yawing the freejet nozzles are also reported as well as the test cell hardware for capturing the freejet nozzle flow. The plans for demonstrating the freejet capability prior to its initial operational date are explained. The technology development efforts to validate and utilize the freejet test capabilities are also described.

High Thrust

Techniques have been developed at the Engine Test Facility (ETF) of the Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC) to simulate flight through atmospheric icing conditions of supercooled liquid water droplets. Ice formed on aircraft and propulsion system surfaces during flight through icing conditions can, even in small amounts, be extremely hazardous. The effects of ice are dependent on many variables and are still unpredictable. Often, experiments are conducted to determine the characteristics of the aircraft and its propulsion system in an icing environment. Facilities at the ETF provide the capability to conduct icing testing in either the direct-connect (connected pipe) or the free-jet mode. The requirements of a spray system for turbine engine icing testing are described, as are the techniques used at the AEDC ETF to simulate flight in icing conditions. Some of the key issues facing the designer of a spray system for use in an altitude facility are identified and discussed, and validation testing of the design of a new spray system for the AEDC ETF is detailed. This spray system enables testing of the newest generation of high-thrust turbofan engines in simulated icing conditions.
