The U.S. Air Force Dynamic Environment Simulator is a man-rated centrifuge with multiple environment simulation capabilities. This facility can generate combinations, either simultaneous or sequential, of acceleration, vibration, temperature, barometric pressure, gas composition, noise and related environmental stresses. Simulation of a broad variety of aerospace flight mission environments is now possible using this facility. The man rating of this facility was carried out in the last six months of 1969 and resulted in the first manned run in December of that year. Although presently programmed to meet Air Force data requirements for the design of planned and proposed aircraft systems, the Dynamic Environment Simulator represents a national research capability capable of supporting the requirements of many R and D programs including manned space flight, high speed surface transportation and other systems or functions where man is exposed to physical environmental stresses in combination.
