ICE-Box Testing
Researchers conduct testing of a superconducting rotor inside a cryogenic vacuum chamber known as the Integrated Cryogenically-Cooled Experiment Box (ICE-Box). This unique testing rig enables quick, low-cost methods for conducting low-temperature tests on aircraft components. Unlike traditional cryogenic testing facilities, the ICE-Box is a simple, transportable system that operates without the use of hazardous cryogenic fluids and allows non-cryogenic experts to easily perform rapid component testing.
