SwRI Information

Home

	Scientists develop test protocols that combine contamination, pressure cycle, thermal cycle, and vibration in a single test, providing close to real-world test data in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Test protocols that combine contamination, pressure cycle, thermal cycle, and vibration in a single test provide close to real-world test data in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) scientists and engineers develop simulated environments that are sufficient to measure acceptable performance and longevity of:

• Components

• Subsystems

• Final assemblies

For production verification, sufficient environmental stresses are added to detect workmanship or process faults.

Environmental Evaluation Studies

SwRI offers numerous services to study and evaluate the durability of fuel, air, and lubricant systems and components. These services include:

• Thermal cycle testing

• Vibration and resonance evaluation

• Pressure cycle testing

• Flow cycle testing

• Durability simulation
