Soot Processes and Radiation in Aeronautical inNOvative combustors (SOPRANO)
Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Aug 31, 2020,
For decades, most of the aviation research activities have been focused on the reduction of noise and NOx and CO2 emissions. However, emissions from aircraft gas turbine engines of non-volatile PM, consisting primarily of soot particles, are of international concern today. Despite the lack of knowledge toward soot formation processes and characterization in terms of mass and size, engine manufactu ...

Towards Industrial LES/DNS in Aeronautics – Paving the Way for Future Accurate CFD (TILDA)
Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2018,
The ability to simulate aerodynamic flows using CFD methods has progressed rapidly over the last decades and has given rise to a change in design processes in aeronautics already. But more improvement is necessary to overcome the (still) existing lack in confidence in CFD usage, based on turbulence modelling. The TILDA project will offer methods and approaches combining advanced and efficient high ...

Full Aero-thermal Combustor-Turbine interactiOn Research (FACTOR)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2016,
To achieve lower Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC) and CO2/NOx emissions, modern turbomachineries operate at high velocities and high temperature conditions. The lack of confidence in the prediction of combustor-turbine interactions leads to apply extra safety margins on components design. Therefore, the understanding of combustor-turbine flow field interactions is mandatory to preserve High Pressur ...

Uncertainty Management for Robust Industrial Design in Aeronautics (UMRIDA)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
Virtual prototyping (VP) is a key technology for environmental friendly and cost effective design in the aircraft industry. However, the underlying analysis and simulation tools (for loads, stresses, emissions, noise), are currently applied with a unique set of input data and model variables, although realistic operating conditions are a superposition of numerous uncertainties under which the indu ...

"Knowledge for Ignition, Acoustics and Instabilities" (KIAI)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2013,
"For the time being, the European engine industry does not have at its disposal methodologies adapted to predict the unsteady behaviour of low NOx combustors. Consequently and in order to be able to set up the development of low NOx technologies, KIAI will deliver reliable unstationary CFD tools which will allow a deep comprehension of unsteady phenomena. The main objective of the KIAI project is ...

Aerodynamic loads estimation at extremes of the flight envelope (ALEF)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,
"ALEF's objective is to enable the European aeronautical industry to create complete aerodynamic models of their aircraft based on numerical simulation approaches within the respective development processes. I.e. ALEF will kick-off a paradigm shift from greater confidence in experimentally measured loads data to greater confidence in computational results. Beyond the scope of ALEF this paradigm sh ...

The project partnership will develop a flight training programme for doctors and paramedics working in Helicopter Emergency Medical Services (HEMS) as a result of the fact that whilst medics are trained to administer medical support, they are generally not trained on how to apply their skills in airborne situations. The project will create a HEMS curriculum with a series of training modules based ...
