The Turbulence and Turbine Film Cooling Laboratory (TTCRL) is a Mechanical Engineering Laboratory at The University of Texas at Austin.

TTCRL specializes in quantifying and improving the cooling of gas turbine engine components. We explore numerous avenues of gas turbine cooling and specialize in characterizing film cooling performance of gas turbine blades and vanes. This lab is unique in that the research is a blend of both experimental and computational work.

TTCRL has a High Speed Wind Tunnel Facility at J.J. Pickle Research Campus, a Flat-Plate Turbine Film Cooling Test Facility, and a Turbine Airfoil Test Facility.
