Engine Module Validators (ENOVAL)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
The ENOVAL project will provide the next step of engine technologies to achieve and surpass the ACARE 2020 goals on the way towards Flightpath 2050. ENOVAL completes the European 7th Framework Programme (FP7) roadmap of Level 2 aero engine projects. ENOVAL will focus on the low pressure system of ultra-high by-pass ratio propulsion systems (12 < BPR < 20) in conjunction with ultra high overall pre ...

Low Emissions Core-Engine Technologies (LEMCOTEC)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2017,
The main objective of the LEMCOTEC project will be the improvement of core-engine thermal efficiency by increasing the overall pressure ratio (OPR) to up to 70 leading to a further reduction of CO2. Since NOx increases with OPR, combustion technologies have to be further developed, at the same time, to at least compensate for this effect. The project will attain and exceed the ACARE targets for 20 ...

Coordinating research and innovation of jet and other sustainable aviation fuel (CORE-JetFuel)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
For a number of ecologic and economic reasons, the aviation industry is currently in great need for alternative fuels. Highly ambitious goals for the reduction of the sector’s overall greenhouse gas emissions set from industry and politics imply sustainable alternative fuels as major contribution, and require research and innovation efforts in order to develop pathways for an economically feasible ...

Morphing Enabling Technologies for Propulsion System Nacelles (MorphElle)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
Flightpath 2050 and the recently unveiled Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) have elaborated CO2-emissions and external noise targets according to chronologically aligned waypoints. For propulsion and power systems the projected cumulative impact of previous Framework Programmes compare favourably to the 2035 target given in the SRIA document. However, if one extends the comparative e ...

Distributed Propulsion and Ultra-high By-pass Rotor Study at Aircraft Level (DisPURSAL)
Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
The objectives defined in “Flightpath 2050” as well as the limited availability of fossil fuels call for significant reductions in fuel consumption in the air transport sector. Novel propulsion concepts are thus a field of intense research, with particular trends that emerge: hybrid energy sources may not only be more efficient, but open up new degrees of freedom in terms of airframe-engine integr ...
