Business Focus

GASL is a provider of research, development, test and evaluation services to the aerospace industry, specializing in development of advanced high speed aeropropulsion systems and low emission gas turbine engines. The company operates 6 wind tunnels and 2 shock tunnels on its premises, capable of simulating atmospheric flight environments at speeds from about 2000 mph to 17,500 mph, as well as static engine test stands. It also provides CAD design services, machining and assembly on-site for engine test rigs and related prototype hardware. GASL built the first airframe-integrated scramjet engine to be flight tested at hypersonic speeds in May 2001, on NASA?s X-43A experimental aircraft. GASL also designs and builds high pressure, high temperature components for wind tunnels and specialized test instrumentation. The company can provide structural analyses for fully coupled transient mechanical and thermal stresses using FEM techniques as well as fluid analyses for inert and reacting flows using state-of-the-art CFD methods.
