	VIGOR - Versuchsstand für Turbinen in Flugzeugtriebwerken 7 January 2010 Das Projekt VIGOR beinhaltet die Entwicklung eines Versuchsstandes für irreguläre gedämpfte Oszillationen mit Reibung. Mit Hilfe dieses Versuchsstands soll das Reibeverhalten von Dämpfungselementen in den Turbinen von Flugzeugtriebwerken näher untersucht werden.

Lower fuel consumption thanks to new turbines - DLR research for Rolls-Royce

13 January 2009
Staff of the DLR Institute of Propulsion Technology at the turbine test bed Aero engines of the future should be environmentally friendly and cost-efficient. Scientists at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) in Göttingen are currently testing an innovative single-stage supersonic high-pressure turbine on behalf of Rolls-Royce that fits that description exactly. The turbine is designed be used in business jets.

Retro-fit for the future

5 April 2008
At the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) near Cologne-Bonn airport, the Systemhaus Technik (SHT) department operates a workshop for manufacturing and repairing flow-critical parts such as turbine heads, wind tunnel models and test bed components for use in basic research. At a maximum tolerance of two hundredths, the precision required by the measurement sensors is extremely high in order to ensure the validity of results derived from flow mechanical experiment set-ups.

Flying Flounder

31 August 2006
In the workshops of the Systemhaus Technik (SHT) in Brunswick, researchers of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) are developing the next generation of passenger aircraft. The vision of tomorrow’s megajet, which could seat up to 1000 passengers in its wing, is called a »flying wing«. These aeroplanes with no fuselage or windows would be more economic, larger and more efficient than any conventional passenger aircraft.
