Joint partnership leads to successful swirl distortion testing
AEDC test team and members of the U.S. Air Force Academy (USAFA) have combined efforts in applying swirl distortion to determine engine response using the Academy’s F109 facility. In recognition of this successful project, the F109 test team was awarded the General Gossick Team Award in July 2017.
