Accessible program is designed to bring working engineers up to speed

Testing new designs for jet engine turbines is no easy task. Wind tunnels are large, complicated, and expensive; and building functional prototypes takes a long time. But Purdue University researchers now have an alternative: a water table which simulates supersonic flow, enabling them to quickly test and iterate their designs.

The AFSB brings together subject matter experts from across aerospace to provide independent, objective, and authoritative external advice to the Department of the Air Force.
