Wind Blade Using Cost-Effective Advanced Composite Lightweight Design (WALID)
Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
WALiD will combine design, material and process developments using thermoplastic materials to create cost-efficient, lightweight and recyclable blades which will be demonstrated by industrial end-users. The power generated by off-shore wind turbines is proportional to the rotor plane area of the blade. However, the weight of large blades puts the materials used under considerable strain, leading t ...

Polymeric composite materials with enhanced thermal conductivity properties for heat exchangers applications (THERMALCOND)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
"The main goal of the project is to develop a new family of low cost polyolefin based components (sheets, pipes and fittings) to be used in the manufacture of flat-plate solar thermal collectors. These components are expected to be a viable alternative to current collector’s metallic components. However, due the current limitations of thermoplastics materials (low thermal conductivity and low resi ...
