DARcorporation engineers have extensive experience in data acquisition, test planning and test management to ensure the propeller or ducted fan performance meets your design goals. We will use our state-of-the-art testing facilities to test your propeller/ducted fan system through a range of sizes of operating conditions.

DARcorporation engineers have the capability to perform analytical and experimental analyses of propeller and ducted fan noise. Using first-order acoustic analytical tools, the noise characteristics can be obtained as a function of fan angle. The physics-based high-fidelity simulation tools we use predict the sound pressure levels at various propeller/ducted fan working conditions. With an on-site acoustic chamber and acoustic testing instruments, we can measure and compare the acoustic/noise signature of different propellers and ducted fans. These measurements allow us to help customers design/select the quietest propeller/ducted fan possible for their vehicle.
