The Icing Research Tunnel is used extensively to test many classes of aircraft under atmospheric icing conditions. Because of the need to test models at higher Reynolds numbers, a new fan rotor was designed to increase test section wind speed. A preliminary study was made of the present fan rotor to suggest possible methods to increase tunnel wind speed. The results of that study are presented.
