Cloud-MicroPhysics-Turbulence-Telemetry: An inter-multidisciplinary training network for enhancing the understanding and modeling of atmospheric clouds (COMPLETE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2016, End date: May 31, 2020,

Clouds are the largest source of uncertainty in weather prediction, climate science, and remain a weak link in modeling atmospheric circulation. This is rooted in the fact that clouds depend on the physical and chemical processes over a huge range of scales, from the collisions of micron-sized droplets and particles to the airflow dynamics on the scales of thousands of meters. Since ambiguities re ...

Consortium for Hall Effect Orbital Propulsion System (CHEOPS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2020,

CHEOPS proposes to develop three different Hall Effect Thruster electric propulsion systems: a dual mode EPS for GEO applications, a low power for LEO applications and a >20 kW high thrust EPS for exploration applications. Each of these will be developed according to market needs and drivers applying incremental technology changes to existing EPS products. The development approach will follow the ...

GaN in One Module Integrated Converter for EP systems (GaNOMIC)

Start date: Dec 1, 2016, End date: Nov 30, 2019,

Satellite contractors are permanently looking for cost and performance improvements. This cascades to the PPU, a subsystem having a very high impact on the cost and performance of EP systems.Hence, we propose to focus on the PPU “heart” studying a disruptive power converter, with major innovations complementary to the incremental improvements, beyond the state of the art. We will demonstrate and c ...

Pulsed Chemical Rocket with Green High Performance Propellants (PulCheR)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

PulCheR (Pulsed Chemical Rocket with Green High Performance Propellants) is a new propulsion concept in which the propellants are fed in the combustion chamber at low pressure and the thrust is generated by means of high frequency pulses, reproducing the defence mechanism of a notable insect: the bombardier beetle.The radical innovation introduced by PulCheR is the elimination of any external pres ...

Aero-Thermodynamic Loads on Lightweight Advanced Structures II (ATLLAS II)

Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

ATLLAS II is a logical follow-up of a recently finalized FP6 project which has as objectives the identification and assessment of advanced light-weight and high-temperature resistant materials for high-speed vehicles up to Mach 6.The material requirements are first defined through an in-depth feasibility study of a Mach 5-6 vehicle. The consortium has now this capability at hand as they can rely o ...

DSP for Space Applications (DSPACE)

Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

"New Earth observation, atmospheric sounding, planetary exploration and generally scientific missions require the capability to handle large amount of data and to process them on-board applying both first level trigger procedure and compression algorithm. The always bigger data flow requests an high on-board numerical calculation capability in order to elaborate the acquired information before sen ...
