Soot Processes and Radiation in Aeronautical inNOvative combustors (SOPRANO)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 août 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 ...

Closed Loop Wind Farm Control (CL-Windcon)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2016, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2019,

Current practice in wind turbines operation is that every turbine has its own controller that optimizes its own performance in terms of energy capture and loading. This way of operating wind farms means that each wind turbine operates based only on the available information on its own measurements. This gets the wind farm to operate in a non-optimum way, since wind turbines are not operating as pl ...
