Overview
The NASA Glenn IRT is the oldest and largest refrigerated icing wind tunnel in the world. It has been used to research ice detection systems and develop icing technologies used on many of today's aircraft. The IRT is able to duplicate nature's icing conditions that aircraft typically encounter. The conditions are simulated using a refrigeration plant and a spray bar system that generate an icing cloud in the tunnel. The Icing Research Tunnel has played a role in developing, testing, and certifying methods to prevent ice buildup on aircraft. Icing Tunnel History
