Abstract

An airflow testing system for an aerospace component uses a flow master with a first sealing surface, a hollow body, and a metering plate. A desired back pressure across a flow path through the aerospace component is determined, and used to form a metering outlet through the metering plate. The plate is attached to the hollow body in a fluid seal, the flow master is secured to a testing position in a fluid seal, and back pressure across the flow master is sensed while flowing air through the flow master. The difference between desired and sensed back pressure is used to evaluate the airflow testing system.
