New Turbine Nozzle geometry with twist for use in the Transonic Compressor at the NPS Turbopropulsion Laboratory

Nozzles on the Ti64 build plate

New instrumentation designed and built at NPS for use in high speed compressor testing.

New high speed compressor testing instrument compared to a quarter

The AM instrumentation on the right replaces the legacy instrumentation on the left. The new AM design allows more measurements for the same test section penetration, along with better instrumentation alignment and control.
