VHBR Engine - Advanced bearing technology

 

To develop and demonstrate various individual technologies required to deliver rolling element bearings with increased load carrying capacity. This should be interpreted as delivering up to 15% higher rolling contact stress capability with no detrimental impact to component life and operational speed than is available from today’s aerospace bearing materials.  Please refer for the full and formal topic description to Annex III of the Clean Sky 2 Work Plan 2014-2015 Amendment nr. 1  Version 3 (see under the tab ""Topic Conditions and Documents"")
