Additive Manufacturing for Cooled High-Temperature Automotive Radial Machinery (CHARM)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project will assess the technical feasibility of using Additive Manufacturing to make high-temperature air-cooled nickel superalloy radial turbine componentry for automotive applications. This is expected to enableturbine operating temperatures of ~1050C, enabling more extreme downsizing of engines, removing the needfor integrated cooled exhaust manifolds and leaving more thermal energy for waste heat recovery post-turbine. The project partners are HiETA Technologies Ltd and the University of Bath's Powertrain and VehicleResearch Centre (PVRC) and Turbomachinery Research Group (TRG).
