Small Multi-Purpose Research Facility (SMiRF)
Cleveland, OH
The Research Combustion Laboratory (RCL) develops aerospace propulsion technology by performing tests on propulsion components and materials. Altitudes up to 137,000 feet can be simulated. The Small Multi-Purpose Research Facility, or SMiRF, evaluates the performance of the thermal protection systems required to provide long-term storage (of up to 10 years) of cryogenic propellants in space.
