1. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 636218 NIPSE Novel Integration of Powerplant System Equipment

2. An H2020 project awarded early 2015, started 1 June 2015 36 months 6.2MEU funding 10 partners from 5 EU member states Coordinated by Aircelle 2 Facts & Figures

3.  NIPSE involves 10 partners from 5 countries:  6 industrial companies  2 SMEs: THX and ARTTIC  1 Research Institute, 1 Non-for-Profit organisation  Together they bring the necessary experience and resources with the most advanced: 3 Consortium : a complementary expertise Specialists in future propulsion systems (UHBR) Specialists of corresponding equipment Specialists in optimization methodologies and thermal management

4.  Fuel burn and emission reductions were assigned to aeronautical industry  New A/C engine architecture emerge: Ultra High By-Pass Ratio (UHBR), with the following main characteristics: 4 Overall context Fan diameter 20-35% greater Smaller and thinner nacelle (to minimize drag increase) Entry Into Service (EIS): 2025-2030

5.  Today, IPPS equipment is:  Very complex – around 40 different sets of equipment: Engine Build Unit (EBU) and Buyer Furnished Equipment (BFE)  Highly driven by maintenance constraints  Manually integrated in the engine and nacelle 5 Overall context

6.  Emerging Ultra High bypass Ratio (UHBR) engines, and other architectures,  make installation of systems very difficult within the space (thin nacelle, larger fan module)  Requiring additional functions or provide extra thermal challenges through additional equipment  To achieve these new architectures, with a better solution, in a shorter development time is not evident and requires research.  These engine architectures have less ventilation capability for engine and equipment zone due to lower volume  Engine Build Unit (EBU) and Buyer Furnished Equipment (BFE) systems give minimal opportunity for system level optimisation 6 Addressing the UHBR challenges

7. 7 The NIPSE Objectives Contribute to the reduction of development time of the future engine architectures such as the UHBR engine through development of optimisation approaches for the assessment of system integration for the power plant system.. Reduce the volume required for the IPPS equipment and thermal management functions and reduce the associated weight of the system and connections To reduce fuel burn. Assure that the systems equipment maintenance access time within the engine is not degraded despite optimising position To prevent further passenger impact due to system downtime and cost of ground operations.

8. 8 NIPSE Expected results 1 A global fuel saving on the aircraft through addressing factors which currently impact fuel burn from future engines up to 2 to 3%. 2 A space gain of 15% of equipment volume for the UHBR engine. 3 A weight saving on the IPPS equipment installation, by the reduction of equipment, dressing and other items 4 No impact to key maintenance activities 5 Development time saving for installation of PowerPlant systems

9.  The NIPSE project is focussed on integrating and optimising the entire set of power plant systems.  Tools and methods to aid the optimisation process (means and measurement) will be developed, as well as individual technologies to support the implementation and integration of the PowerPlant systems within the harsher environment and reduced volume of a future engine. 9 The NIPSE Scientific approach

11.  NIPSE has set up a special task force with knowledge and experience concerning aircraft-engine integration  This Advisory group is composed of experts (from the partner organisations and external to the consortium)  The expert will provide feedback on issues focusing on, but not limited to,  airframe engine integration  maintenance aspects  Some of the more general overall project milestones will also be presented to this group to obtain feedback and advice.  External advisers: TBC 11 Advisers

12.  Links with the students community  NIPSE is currently establishing cooperations with the EUROAVIA and BEST networks  To promote the project amongst student bodies, and propose internship opportunities for the project within those bodies  Additional activities could take the form of a Symposium on the project or a workshop  Links with related projects  NIPSE will establish strong links with related EU funded projects – Clean Sky 2– through workshops and meetings  In particular, NIPSE will establish and maintain close relations with the EU project ENOVAL which focuses on new technologies  http://www.enoval.eu/ http://www.enoval.eu/ 12 Cooperations

13.  Technical activities  All the activities have been kicked-off  The NIPSE project partners are currently focusing on the delivery of the requirements including the definition of IPPS detailed specification and high level aircraft specification  Dissemination activities  The dissemination plan was developed (Public)  The project public website will be available at the end of November 2015  Discussions with related projects and with student networks have taken place  Management activities  The communication and follow-up tools have been set up  Contacts are being established with the external advisory group members, with a first meetings to take place early January 2016 13 NIPSE… current activities (Month 4)

14.  NIPSE will organise a first industry dedicated workshop in November 2016  to present the preliminary results, technical and business perspectives  This midterm Workshop will be organised at the NLR premises in Amsterdam, over two days  Final workshop  To communicate on the final project results as well as the next development steps  It will be organised at the end of the project (location tbd)  This final workshop will target the scientific and industry communities, engine manufacturers and airframers NIPSE xx Meeting 14 NIPSE events
