Development of an in-line multi-parameter oil condition monitoring system including a novel oil corrosion sensor for bio-gas operated power generator engines (CONDIMON)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
We will+ develop an integrated sensor system for in-line oil condition monitoring covering the most important oil condition parameters including corrosion (acidity) for industrial power generator engines or turbines;+ develop a novel sensor for the online measurement of corrosion effect as a direct indicator for the acidity of the engine oil which is a critical parameter in case of bio-fuel operat ...

Dry lubricated Harmonic Drives for space applications (HarmLES)
Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
On spacecrafts reduction of mass and power consumption are a major issue. On the other hand, in case of mechanisms for Solar Arrays or antennas big masses have to be moved and kept in position for long times. Harmonic Drives would fulfil the requirements: high gear ratios enable the use of small actuator motors (low mass and power), they provide high stiffness and high precision even at very low s ...

Mechanisms of interactions in nano-scale of novel ionic lubricants with functional surfaces (MINILUBES)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Recently, ionic liquids (IL) are employed as substitute for traditional solvents in catalysis, synthesis and electrochemistry. But little research work or actual applications have been published until now concerning the utilization of IL as lubricants. Generally, IL show no or very low vapour pressures, satisfying viscosity-temperature behaviour, no inflammability and high thermal stabilities up t ...
