Aero-Acoustic Propulsion Lab (AAPL)

Cleveland, OH

This facility is an acoustically treated geodesic dome. The 130-ft-diameter dome is 65-ft high and acts as a noise barrier, protecting adjacent Glenn buildings and surrounding residential communities from the high levels of noise. The dome serves double duty by providing an anechoic environment for acoustic measurement of aeropropulsion components.
