Safran, Onera begin wind tunnel trials for CFM RISE fan demonstrator compositesworld.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from compositesworld.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
Safran Aircraft Engines and France’s national aerospace research agency ONERA have begun first wind tunnel tests with the ECOENGInE, a 1:5 scale demonstrator of the future Open Fan. Safran has a base in Gloucester.
The trials are at ONERA’s wind tunnel facility in Modane, France. This disruptive architecture, a key pillar of the CFM RISE technology demonstration program,[1] is currently the most promising in terms of reducing the environmental footprint of aviation.
The Open Fan aims to reduce fuel burn and CO2 emissions by 20% — and up to 80% when combined with SAFs or sustainable aviation fuels — for the next generation of single-aisle commercial jets by 2035.
To support the process of bringing the Open Fan’s aerodynamics and acoustics to maturity, Safran Aircraft Engines and ONERA recently signed a framework agreement for an ambitious test plan from 2024 to 2028, building on previous trials with the ECOENGInE.
