New concept of high pressure hydraulic filter for aeronautics preserving environment (AEROFIL)

Objective

One of the key elements of aeronautic hydraulic circuits is the filtration function. Most hydraulic filtration systems use renewable cartridges that are thrown away after use. This project consists of working on future filtration requirements: use of more ecological material, improvement of cartridge lifetime and an increase in working pressure. The proposed approach is firstly to understand the physical mechanism of filtration by simulation. Theoretical models are proposed and are compared with experiments to obtain a high degree of confidence. New synthetic and composite materials are studied, adapted and tested to fulfil performance requirements. Manufacturing processes are investigated for availability, cost impact and environmental constraints, and finally mock-ups are manufactured and tested.
