In 1990, AcUAS started developing the Dry-Low-NOx Micromix combustion technology. Micromix reduces NOx emissions using jet-in-crossflow mixing of multiple miniaturized fuel jets and combustor air with an inherent safety against flashback. At first, pure hydrogen as fuel was investigated with lab-scale applications. Later, Micromix prototypes were developed for the use in an industrial gas turbine Honeywell/Garrett GTCP-36-300, proving low NOx characteristics during real gas turbine operation, accompanied by the successful definition of safety laws and control system modifications. Further, the Micromix was optimized for the use in annular and can combustors as well as for fuel-flexibility with hydrogen-methane-mixtures and hydrogen-rich syngas qualities by means of extensive experimental and numerical simulations. In 2020, the latest Micromix application will be demonstrated in a commercial 2 MW-class gas turbine can-combustor with full-scale engine operation. The paper discusses the advances in Micromix research over the last three decades.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FunkeBeckmannAbanteriba2017, author = {Funke, Harald and Beckmann, Nils and Abanteriba, Sylvester}, title = {A comparison of complex chemistry mechanisms for hydrogen methane blends based on the Sandia / Sydney Bluff-Body Flame HM1}, series = {Proceedings of the Eleventh Asia-Pacific Conference on Combustion (ASPACC 2017), New South Wales, Australia, 10-14 December 2017}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Eleventh Asia-Pacific Conference on Combustion (ASPACC 2017), New South Wales, Australia, 10-14 December 2017}, isbn = {978-1-5108-5646-2}, pages = {262 -- 265}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FingerdeVriesVosetal.2020, author = {Finger, Felix and de Vries, Reynard and Vos, Roelof and Braun, Carsten and Bil, Cees}, title = {A comparison of hybrid-electric aircraft sizing methods}, series = {AIAA Scitech 2020 Forum}, booktitle = {AIAA Scitech 2020 Forum}, doi = {10.2514/6.2020-1006}, pages = {31 Seiten}, year = {2020}, abstract = {The number of case studies focusing on hybrid-electric aircraft is steadily increasing, since these configurations are thought to lead to lower operating costs and environmental impact than traditional aircraft. However, due to the lack of reference data of actual hybrid-electric aircraft, in most cases, the design tools and results are difficult to validate. In this paper, two independently developed approaches for hybrid-electric conceptual aircraft design are compared. An existing 19-seat commuter aircraft is selected as the conventional baseline, and both design tools are used to size that aircraft. The aircraft is then re-sized under consideration of hybrid-electric propulsion technology. This is performed for parallel, serial, and fully-electric powertrain architectures. Finally, sensitivity studies are conducted to assess the validity of the basic assumptions and approaches regarding the design of hybrid-electric aircraft. Both methods are found to predict the maximum take-off mass (MTOM) of the reference aircraft with less than 4\% error. The MTOM and payload-range energy efficiency of various (hybrid-) electric configurations are predicted with a maximum difference of approximately 2\% and 5\%, respectively. The results of this study confirm a correct formulation and implementation of the two design methods, and the data obtained can be used by researchers to benchmark and validate their design tools.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DachwaldSeboldtLoebetal.2007, author = {Dachwald, Bernd and Seboldt, Wolfgang and Loeb, Horst W. and Schartner, Karl-Heinz}, title = {A comparison of SEP and NEP for a main belt asteroid sample return mission}, series = {7th International Symposium on Launcher Technologies, Barcelona, Spain, 02-05 April 2007}, booktitle = {7th International Symposium on Launcher Technologies, Barcelona, Spain, 02-05 April 2007}, pages = {1 -- 10}, year = {2007}, abstract = {Innovative interplanetary deep space missions, like a main belt asteroid sample return mission, require ever larger velocity increments (∆V s) and thus ever more demanding propulsion capabilities.

In 1995, a European-Russian Joint Study Group (JSG) presented a study report on "Advanced Interplanetary Missions Using Nuclear-Electric Propulsion" (NEP). One of the investigated reference missions was a sample return (SR) from the main belt asteroid (19) Fortuna. The envisaged nuclear power plant, Topaz-25, however, could not be realized and also the worldwide developments in space reactor hardware stalled. In this paper, we investigate, whether such a mission is also feasible using a solar electric propulsion (SEP) system and compare our SEP results to corresponding NEP results.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KowalskiMcArdellBartelt2006, author = {Kowalski, Julia and McArdell, B.

The objective must be to design the aircraft powertrain optimized for a specific flight mission with respect to fuel consumption and specific engine power. Against this background, expert tools provide valuable decision-making assistance for the customer. In this paper, a mathematical calculation model for the fuel consumption of aircraft ICE is presented. This model enables the derivation of fuel consumption maps for different engine configurations. Depending on the flight conditions and based on these maps, the current and the integrated fuel consumption for freely definable flight emissions is calculated. For that purpose, an interpolation method is used, that has been optimized for accuracy and calculation time. The mission boundary conditions flight altitude and power requirement of the ICE form the basis for this calculation. The mathematical fuel consumption model is embedded in a parent program. This parent program presents the simulated fuel consumption by means of an example flight mission for a representative airplane. The focus of the work is therefore on reproducing exact consumption data for flight operations. By use of the empirical approaches according to Gagg-Farrar [1] the power and fuel consumption as a function of the flight altitude are determined. To substantiate this approaches, a 1-D ICE model based on the multi-physical simulation tool GT-Suite® has been created. This 1-D engine model offers the possibility to analyze the filling and gas change processes, the internal combustion as well as heat and friction losses for an ICE under altitude environmental conditions. Performance measurements on a dynamometer at sea level for a naturally aspirated ICE with a displacement of 1211 ccm used in an aviation aircraft has been done to validate the 1-D ICE model. To check the plausibility of the empirical approaches with respect to the fuel consumption and performance adjustment for the flight altitude an analysis of the ICE efficiency chain of the 1-D engine model is done. In addition, a comparison of literature and manufacturer data with the simulation results is presented.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BagheriSchleupenDahmannetal.2015, author = {Bagheri, Mohsen and Schleupen, Josef and Dahmann, Peter and Kallweit, Stephan}, title = {A multi-functional device applying for the safe maintenance at high-altitude on wind turbines}, series = {20th International Conference on Composite Materials : Copenhagen, 19 - 24th July 2015}, booktitle = {20th International Conference on Composite Materials : Copenhagen, 19 - 24th July 2015}, organization = {International Conference on Composite Materials <20, 2015, Copenhagen>}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchirraWatmuffBauschat2014, author = {Schirra, Julian and Watmuff, Jon and Bauschat, J.-Michael}, title = {A relative assessment of existing potential-methodologies to accurately estimate the induced drag of highly non-planar lifting systems}, series = {Advanced aero concepts, design and operations : Applied Aerodynamics Conference : July 22 -24, 2014, Bristol, UK}, booktitle = {Advanced aero concepts, design and operations : Applied Aerodynamics Conference : July 22 -24, 2014, Bristol, UK}, organization = {Applied Aerodynamics Conference <2014, Bristol>}, pages = {1 -- 13}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FingerBraunBil2017, author = {Finger, Felix and Braun, Carsten and Bil, Cees}, title = {A Review of Configuration Design for Distributed Propulsion Transitioning VTOL Aircraft}, series = {Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Aerospace Technology 2017, APISAT 2017, Seoul, Korea}, booktitle = {Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Aerospace Technology 2017, APISAT 2017, Seoul, Korea}, pages = {15 Seiten}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GoettenFingerMarinoetal.2019, author = {G{\"o}tten, Falk and Finger, Felix and Marino, Matthew and Bil, Cees and Havermann, Marc and Braun, Carsten}, title = {A review of guidelines and best practices for subsonic aerodynamic simulations using RANS CFD}, series = {Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Aerospace Technology (APISAT), At Gold Coast, Australia, 04. - 06.
