1. Integrated Duct Aerodynamics
Abstract : Air traffic is rapidly increasing, with no sign of slowing down, resulting in increased green-house gases emission. With emission criteria becoming stricter every year, the aircraft design is subjected to continuous improvements. The development of more efficient aircraft engines plays a central role in the strive towards lower emission levels. READ MORE

2. A Large-Scale Facility for Investigation of Intermediate Turbine Ducts: Design, Implementation and Initial Tests
Abstract : Intermediate turbine ducts are used in modern multi-spool jet engines for guiding the flow from the high-pressure turbine to the low-pressure turbine. The demand for lighter, more efficient and more environmentally friendly aircraft engines requires the new jet engines to have higher by-pass ratios. READ MORE

3. Perspectives of Aerodynamic Drag and Cooling Airflow for Heavy-Duty Trucks - Reconsidering European Total Length Legislation
Abstract : Increasing fuel prices and constantly lowered emission legislation forces the vehicle industry to develop new methods for propelling vehicles and to optimize existing technology. Trucks constitute a significant proportion of the transportation system; consequently it is of great importance to ensure as low an impact as possible on the environment. READ MORE

4. Experimental investigation of the flow field in an aggressive intermediate turbine duct
Abstract : Intermediate turbine ducts are used for connecting thehigh-pressure turbine to the low-pressure turbine in turbofan engines. In order to meet the demands for more efficient and environmentally friendly jet engines, future intermediate turbine ducts need to have larger radial off-sets without increasing their length.

5. Aerothermal Investigation of an Intermediate Turbine Duct
Abstract : Intermediate turbine ducts are used to guide the flow in turbofan engines from the short-radius high-pressure turbine to the large-radius low-pressure turbine. The demand for more efficient and silent jet engines and with a reduced environmental impact requires turbofans with increasingly higher by-pass ratios. READ MORE
