"ACTREAL aims to deliver aerodynamics research enabling aeroengine turbine efficiency increase in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.The aerodynamic loss in low-pressure turbines are largely accountable to flow separation in cruise conditions, the situation being more critical with nowadays ultra-high-lift blade design trends, hence increasing fuel consumption rates, thus emissions. Active ...

Background The scientific community has come to the conclusion that greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere due to anthropogenic activities, will increase the average planetary temperature with serious consequences for the stability and balance of the climate. A key priority of the 6th Environment Action Programme of the European Community will be ...
