The article discusses the development and capabilities of the National Transonic Facility which is planned for operation in 1981. The fan-drive, cryogenic-pressurized, closed-return facility will have operating parameters of: 0.1-1.2 Mach, 1-9 bars pressure, 78-340 K, 150 dB sound pressure, and plus or minus 0.001 rms turbulence intensity. These operating conditions have been selected on the basis of several current and future aircraft and space transportation systems. The facility will provide full-scale testing conditions for calculating subsonic drag, airloads, and stability and control information. Data for pre-test conditions, on-line information, and post-test analysis will be computer-processed.
