Description: Take a virtual tour of the NASA Glenn IRT, 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 Icing Research Tunnel (IRT) at NASA Glenn Research Center is the oldest and largest refrigerated icing wind tunnel in the world, and it is Glenn's oldest and busiest facility. Built at the end of World War II, the IRT was instrumental in developing and testing ice protection systems for piston- and propeller-driven aircraft. The world's aircraft fly safely through icing clouds because of technology developed in this tunnel.
