Aircraft Engine Nacelle Fire Test Simulator.

Abstract

The objective of this program was to develop design rationale, test criteria and complete detail design of an aircraft engine nacelle fire test simulator. The fabrication of a simulator from the detail design of this program will allow a more realistic investigation of engine nacelle fire problems and the evaluation of fire prevention hardware, detection and extinguishment systems generated by aircraft programs. The fabrication of the simulator was not a part of this program. This report documents the steps taken in defining the simulator design goals and requirements, conducting of preliminary design, trade-off studies, the selection of a final simulator configuration, and detail design of this simulator.
