Industrialists and government agencies have praised the technological effect prediction quality of ONERA’s aerodynamic simulation software elsA. The latest developments around the multigrid method Chimère have been due to the complexity and details in regard to turbomachinery.

Through an original mathematical formulation, ONERA has achieved spectacular gains in the calculation of ERS and is ranked among the best in the world in relation to this problem

The two Carnot Institutes have joined forces to produce – together with the SME Compose – a fully composite automotive wishbone suspension. The innovation lies in the possibility of producing light parts with high mechanical performance, at rates compatible with the requirements of automobile production. PSA Peugeot Citroën is a partner.

ONERA obtains the means to predict the production of emissions in future aeronautical combustion chambers.

The Tosca []1 program of the Astech [2] center, completed in late 2012, has led to major advances in the development of a new Snecma burner architecture; a technology that must replace conventional burners to comply with future emission standards for aircraft engines.

ONERA has succeeded in developing a low cost high-temperature material that will allow the hypersonic flight thermal limit to be overcome.

After creating the smallest cryogenic infrared camera in the world in late 2011, research engineers at ONERA reveal another world first: the sorting of photons by their wavelength, at a micrometric scale.

Before the end of her PhD, Florence de la Barrière, Doctor and Onera 2012 Best Thesis awarded, completed the implementation of an extremely compact camera, suitable for industrial manufacture.

Toulouse, 25th of January 2013 – ONERA (Office National d'Etudes et de Recherches
Aérospatiales) supports the arrival of the CEA Tech platform to the Midi-Pyrenees region.
