p; The European project Swafea, on the feasibility and effects of introducing alternative fuels in aviation, was conducted under ONERA management with 19 European industrialpartners (Airbus, Rolls-Royce, Snecma, Shell, Air France, etc.) and research partners (IFP-EN, DLR, WUR, etc).br /; br /; The preliminary results of the study were presented and discussed with the various participating parties in February 2011, during the international conference organised in Toulouse
Onera is taking part in a research program in collaboration with industrialpartners to define what these flying devices could look like... "We are taking part in a multi-disciplinary program, with industrialpartners, to define the feasibility of these surveillance drones in terms of aerodynamics, structure, propulsion, payload, and instrumentation which guarantee a level of reliability comparable to that of current commercial aircraft", explains Claude the Tallec, project leader at Onera
Once the models are verified they are made available to other Onera teams, or industrialpartners such as Snecma and Turbomeca. TLC chamber: calculation of the concentration of soots with Cedre
