GURNEY FLAP ACTUATOR AND MECHANISM FOR A FULL SCALE HELICOPTER ROTOR BLADE (PT656)
Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

"Microtecnica SrL (MT) have brought together industry leading expertise to support the design anddevelopment of a full scale Active Gurney Flap (AGF) system. The team have a combination of relevant experience in blade actuation across a range of technologies together with significant capabilities in fundamental engineering analysis to support a comprehensive review of potential solutions. The proposal reflects the joint desire of offering a risk managed baseline approach as well as ensuring all potential candidate solutions are assessed as part of the initial development task.The consortium is lead by MT who provide the technical and programme management and the detail design and manufacture of the wind tunnel and whirl test hardware. MT will be supported by Microtecnica Actuation Technologies (MAT), University of Bristol and the “Politecnico di Torino” based in Turin. The team ensures a balance of technical depth together with a commitment and capability to exploit technology for commercial gain."
