EGR coolers are used in combustion engines to reduce NOx emissions. However, heat transfer in these coolers also results in thermophoresis-temperature-gradient driven motion of suspended particles towards cooler regions-which leads to significant soot deposition. Presenter Meisam Mehravaran

This document describes the megawatt-level DC charging system requirements for couplers/inlets, cables, cooling, communication and interoperability. The intended application is for commercial vehicles with larger battery packs requiring higher charging rates for moderate dwell time. A simplified analog safety signaling approach is used for connection-detection to guarantee de-energized state for unmated couplers with superimposed high speed data for EVSE-EV charging control and other value added services.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides guidance to develop and assure validation and verification of IVHM systems used in autonomous aircraft, vehicles and driver assistance functions. IVHM covers a vehicle, monitoring and data processing functions inherent within its sub-systems, and the tools and processes used to manage and restore the vehicle’s health. The scope of this document is to address challenges and identify recommendations for the application of integrated vehicle health management (IVHM) specifically to intelligent systems performing tasks autonomously within the mobility sector. This document will focus on the core aspects of IVHM for autonomous vehicles that are common to both aerospace and automotive applications. It is anticipated that additional documents will be developed separately to cover aspects of this functionality that are unique to each application domain.

The purpose of this SAE Standard is to provide a standardized test procedure for measuring the fuel consumption of spark ignited engines in the range of 225-999cc used in the consumer and commercial turf industry. The load points and associated fuel consumption rates will be measured as the engine operates on the engine speed governor, reflecting how the user will operate the equipment. The fuel consumption calculated in gallons of useage per hour will be derived from a specified engine speed and load map to be communicated universally to end users.

This document addresses many of the issues and challenges related to obtaining high quality measurements at the designated Aerodynamic Interface Plane (AIP) necessary to characterize the flow field. The intent is to consolidate information needed to understand the requirements, and techniques for obtaining quality measurements, and provide lessons learned from previous test programs. This document applies to Ground (wind tunnel and engine test) and Flight testing for inlet recovery and distortion for air vehicles.

This Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is a historical technical record describing procedures, required continuous sampling conditions, and instrumentation for the measurement of non-volatile particle number and mass concentrations from the exhaust of aircraft gas turbine engines. Procedures are included to calculate sampling loss performance. This AIR is not intended for in-flight testing, nor does it apply to engine operating in the afterburning mode.

This Aerospace Information Report is a historical technical record of the initial document detailing the measurement of non-volatile particle emissions at the exit plane of aircraft gas turbine engines. This methodology was adopted by ICAO into Annex 16 Vol II and updated into Aerospace Recommended Practice ARP6320.

Future updates of this document may include explanations of the reasoning and assumptions used to develop this measurement methodology.

This document presents Flight Test Techniques, Data Analysis Methods, and Reporting examples related to installed turbine Power Available and Power Assurance demonstrations as required by CFR Title 14 Part 29.45(c) and (f).

Over the past several years the FZG A/8.3/90 test method has been used to evaluate current qualified aviation lubricants. The results of the effort have been summarized in this document as a historical reference to document the findings made from the committee.

This SAE Aerospace Information Report is to supplement content from ARP4163 pertaining to error analysis on the use of multiple drive adapter applications, on both vertical and horizontal balance machines. This new Aerospace Information Report will serve as a practical resource that offers guidance to the Machine Operator and Process Engineer.

To inform users on proper use, procedures and common errors when using electronic compensation for tooling on horizontal and vertical balancing machines

This Aerospace Informational Report (AIR) provides guidance on using environmental, electrochemical, and electrical resistance measurements to monitor environment spectra and corrosivity of service environments, focusing on parameters of interest, existing measurement platforms, deployment requirements, and data processing techniques. The sensors and monitoring systems provide discrete time-based records of 1) environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, and contaminants; 2) measures of alloy corrosion in the sensor; and 3) protective coating performance in the sensor. These systems provide measurements of environmental parameters, sensor material corrosion rate, and sensor coating condition for use in assessing the risk of atmospheric corrosion of the structure.

Provide guidance on how balance machine vector data is captured and reported. Provide an understanding of how to transform balance machine vector data to alternate locations. Provide guidance on how vector imbalances may be used to evaluate and diagnose balance process performance.

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides technical information regarding Engine Control Systems Interdependencies strategies and/or functions. This concerns aircraft with multiple power sources: at least two engines, whatever the nature of the power source is (electrical motor or gas turbine engine). Within this document the aircraft stands for fixed-wing aircraft as well as rotorcraft. The term EECS or FADEC is used for the engine electronic control system, whereas the term EEC is used for the electronic unit itself. The scope includes civilian aircraft powered by turbofan, turboprop, turboshaft and electrical engines equipped with electronic engine controls. Military aircraft is taken into consideration, however restricted topics that change the operational behaviors are not discussed.

Document possible AI technologies, architecture, validation approach, and safety concerns for each use case.

This Aerospace Information Report (AIR) identifies considerations on power available and inlet distortion for rotorcraft with Inlet Barrier Filter (IBF) installations. This document provides a more in-depth understanding of the physics behind power available and inlet distortion characterization for rotorcraft with Inlet Barrier Filter (IBF) installations, including case studies and calculation examples. It is intended to support the methods of compliance to power available and inlet distortion requirements for rotorcraft with Inlet Barrier Filter (IBF) installations recommended in ARP6912.

This is an initial release of an Aerospace Information Report to provide methods for Engine Suppliers to follow to execute their in house performance models to generate datasets that are provided to airframe customers early in the conceptual design phase of an aircraft program. This AIR provides some general guidance for execution order and input settings to be used to execute the model.

This document will address techniques or methods that have been used within the industry to address the problem of engine stability margin accounting when combinations of distortion types exist in an aircraft installation. Its focus is combining temperature, planar wave, and swirl distortion with time-variant spatial total pressure distortion. Example methodologies will be presented along with example cases where co-existing distortions have been evaluated. It will also address the areas where the industries' knowledge base is lacking (experimental data or computational methods) and the future work that is needed for methodology development in these areas. This document is viewed to be updated every five years as more information (data either experimentally or analytically) becomes available.
