In the future, aircraft with long, thin wings supported by aerodynamic braces could help airlines save on fuel costs \u2013 but those same wings could be susceptible to ice buildup.\u00a0In the historic Icing Research Tunnel<\/a> at NASA Glenn, scientists and engineers are testing a concept for a transonic truss-braced wing. Their goal: to collect important data to inform the design of these potential efficient aircraft of the future.<\/p>\n

NASA Glenn can simulate icing conditions in its Icing Research Tunnel to identify potential challenges for new aircraft designs. These tests provide valuable information about how ice builds up on wings and can help identify the most critical icing conditions for safety.<\/p>\n
