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 presentation shows the SCADE System product line for systems modeling and generation based on the SysML standard and the Eclipse Papyrus open source technology. SCADE System has been developed in the framework of Listerel, a joint laboratory of Esterel Technologies, provider of the SCADE�, and CEA LIST, project leader of the Eclipse component, Papyrus. From an architecture point of view, the Esterel SCADE tools are built on top of the SCADE platform which includes both SCADE Suite�, a model-based development environment dedicated to critical software, and SCADE System enabling model-based system engineering. SCADE System includes Papyrus, an open source component (under EPL license), integrated in the modeling platform of Eclipse. Using this integrated modeling platform, both system and software teams share the same environment for system development. Furthermore, other model-based tools can be added to the environment, due to the use of Eclipse.

In recent years, all major microprocessor manufacturers are transitioning towards the deploymenet of multiple processing cores on every chip. These multi-core architectures represent the industry consensus regarding the most effective utilization of available silicon resources to satisfy growing demands for processing and memory capacities. Porting off-the-shelf software capabilities to multi-core architectures often requires significant changes to data structures and algorithms. When developing new software capabilities specifically for deployment on SMP architectures, software engineers are required to address specific multi-core programming issues, and in the ideal, must do so in ways that are generic to many different multi-core target platforms. This talk provides an overview of the special considerations that must be addressed by software engineers targeting multi-core platforms and describes how the Java language facilitates solutions to these special challenges.

The development of PM and NOx reduction system with the combination of DOC included DPF and SCR catalyst in addition to the AOC sub-assembly for NH3 slip protection is described. DPF regeneration strategy and manual regeneration functionality are introduced with using ITH, HCI device on the EUI based EGR, VGT 12.3L diesel engine at the CVS full dilution tunnel test bench. With this system, PM and NOx emission regulation for JPNL was satisfied and DPF regeneration process under steady state condition and transient condition (JE05 mode) were successfully fulfilled. Manual regeneration process was also confirmed and HCI control strategy was validated against the heat loss during transient regeneration mode. Presenter Seung-il Moon

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 development of future more-and full-electric aircraft concepts has significantly impacted aircraft electric power system (EPS) design. Finalizing the EPS architectures involves extensive modeling and simulation activities to ensure the required characteristics of the entire EPS prior to the physical implementation. Hence, the development of accurate, effective and computational time-saving simulation models is of great importance. Correspondingly, there is a need to establish an EPS-specific modeling and simulations common framework to ensure effective and accurate solutions to the problems addressed. The document continues a series of AE-7M documents specific for aircraft electrical systems aiming to establish such a framework (the series has started with AIR 6326 "Aircraft Electrical Power Systems. Modeling and Simulation. Definitions" issued in August, 2015).

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.

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.

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.

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.

The E-36 committee is requested to develop a standard or recommended practice for Control System Fault Accommodation to provide guidance on the fault detection and accommodation strategies and robust validation toward certification to FAA Control System regulation 33.28. FAA has written an issue paper on this outlining the risks and vulnerabilities in fault detection/ accommodation based on industry/agency experience over many years; and suggested means of compliance in terms of tests, analyses, simulations. The E-36 is requested to factor in the issue paper and build on the guidance content into an SAE document for reference by the industry. In this endeavor, it is recommended that the SAE standard/ARP consider conventional gas turbine controls as well as emerging architectures such Hybrid and Electric Propulsion Systems.
