Assessment of additive manufacturing limits for eco-design optimization in heat exchangers

Participants:

LORTEK, FTI, CIDETEC, MU-ENG, EPSILON, TUHH y CTME

Programme:

Clean Sky 2

Sectors:

Aeronautics-Aerospace

Technologies:

PBF-LB

Scope

To optimize the design and manufacturing of heat exchangers (HX) through metal additive manufacturing (SLM), making them more efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective once the real limits of this technology are reliably understood and applied.

Solution

Lighter, more efficient, and more sustainable heat exchangers through metal additive manufacturing (LPBF) and a comprehensive eco-design approach for SAFRAN.
