Electric Motor Powered Aero-engine Simulation of aircraft models in Wind Tunnels (EMPAS)
1 Jun 2016 to 31 Oct 2019
During wind tunnel testing of aircraft, the aerodynamic effects of jet engines are represented using one of two techniques. The vast majority of models use ‘Through Flow Nacelles’ (TFN), effectively open tubes, which do not represent any powered engine airflow. A small amount of more representative testing is achieved using Turbine Powered Simulators (TPS...
HeatWave
1 Mar 2012 to 31 Jan 2013
HeatWave will explore the use of waste exhaust heat and microwaves, to increase the calorific value of fuel for IC engines. This feasibility study is preparatory to industrial research. It brings together two large organisations looking to share knowledge and prove an early stage technology, currently being developed for the aerospace sector, in the autom...

High energy density TMO/Si-alloy battery for PHEVs.
1 Apr 2010 to 31 Dec 2013
“A significant reduction in the UK's carbon dioxide emissions could be achieved by increased consumer uptake of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). Such vehicles would emit no CO2 in urban driving cycles (probably the majority of their use) but would have the ability to switch to ICE use for extended range journey and are thus likely to be attractiv...
