Objective ActiPPTSens consortium will established the technology benchmark on smart sensors for pressure, position and temperature measurement, based on the specification of NEWAC, DREAM and TEENI. Sensor technologies and their main features will be analysed and captured into a Sensors Technology Comparative Matrix, after the specification definition. The promising sensors technologies will be chosen for the prototype development. ActiPPTSens project have been structured as follow: Specification definition- The specification will be based on the public deliverable of project NEWAC, DREAM , VITAL and TEENI (new turboshaft concept) and TURBOMECA guideline as leader of the SAGE5 ITD; Benchmark of technologies- analysis of the existing technologies in the sensors field. Emerging or critical sensors technologies of several sector will be consider; and Prototype fabrication- Smart sensors prototypes of the selected technologies will be fabricated for their test in IDT SAGE 5 demonstrator. The initial technologies that the ActivePPTSens consortium considers as potential candidates for the prototype fabrication are: -Contactless Torque Sensor CTS, develop and patented by CEDRAT as technology was initiated for PSA. The CTS Contactless Torque Sensor measures the torque and the rotation speed of either a stationary axle or a rotating shaft without contact. -Piezoelectric MENS sensors, underdevelopment by INASMET-Tecnalia and ICV-CSIC. Piezoelectric sensors based on electrospun PZT nanofibers show higher pressure sensibility, longer life cycle, easy integration under structural elements and complex geometrical shape capability. -FBG devices, Fibre Bragg Grating technology with high embedding capability is under study for rotor blades or disks for the monitoring of aerial vehicles engine. The impact of the sensors technology to be develop in ActiPPTSens project would extend far beyond the consortium because of their impact in the cost saving and their transference to aerial vehicle Fields of science engineering and technologyelectrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineeringelectronic engineeringsensorssmart sensorsengineering and technologyelectrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineeringelectrical engineeringpiezoelectrics Programme(s) FP7-JTI - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Joint Technology Initiatives Topic(s) JTI-CS-2009-1-SAGE-05-003 - Development of high accuracy, low weight "Smart" sensors for pressure, position, temperature measurement Call for proposal SP1-JTI-CS-2009-01 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme JTI-CS - Joint Technology Initiatives - Clean Sky Coordinator FUNDACION TECNALIA RESEARCH & INNOVATION EU contribution € 272 498,00 Address PARQUE CIENTIFICO Y TECNOLOGICO DE GIPUZKOA, PASEO MIKELETEGI 2 20009 DONOSTIA-SAN SEBASTIAN (GIPUZKOA) Spain See on map Region Noreste País Vasco Gipuzkoa Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Nieves Murillo (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Participants (3) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all CEDRAT TECHNOLOGIES SA France EU contribution € 220 519,00 Address CHEMIN DU VIEUX CHENE 59 38240 Meylan See on map Region Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Rhône-Alpes Isère Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Line Roux (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data CARDIFF UNIVERSITY United Kingdom EU contribution € 45 941,00 Address NEWPORT ROAD 30 36 CF24 0DE Cardiff See on map Region Wales East Wales Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Nick Bodycombe (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data AGENCIA ESTATAL CONSEJO SUPERIOR DE INVESTIGACIONES CIENTIFICAS Spain EU contribution € 60 700,00 Address CALLE SERRANO 117 28006 Madrid See on map Region Comunidad de Madrid Comunidad de Madrid Madrid Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Carlos Manuel Abad Ruiz (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data
