European Workshop on New Aero Engine Concepts

Towards a sustainable and environment friendly future for air-traffic

The NEWAC programme would like to invite you to the NEWAC Workshop in Munich on 30 June – 1 July 2010.

NEWAC is a European R&T programme launched in 2006. It aims to develop and validate new technologies for core engine components to reduce fuel burn and emissions and contribute to a considerable reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of future aircraft.

The NEWAC workshop summarizes the 4 years of international collaborative research between 40 partners composed of a large number of stakeholders in the European industry including all major aero-engine manufacturers, innovative small businesses, universities and research centres. The workshop includes an exhibition with poster sessions and over 40 technical presentations covering research into innovative aero engine technologies and design solutions for:

-          Four new aero engine core configurations 

-          Intercooler and recuperator integration 

-          Novel lean combustion concepts for very low NOx emissions 

-          Further innovative core concepts 

-          Design and manufacture of efficient and lightweight compressors 

-          Compressor stability enhancement.

This workshop offers insight into innovative core engine technologies, and will present solutions developed by NEWAC programme. It also provides an outlook on further research efforts needed to fully realize or surpass ACARE 2020 objectives.
