ENOVAL

ENOVAL, which is set up within the Seventh Framework Programme, will run for four years and has a gross budget of more than € 45 million,  co-funded by the European Commission with € 26.5 million. Led by MTU Aero Engines, 35 partners from ten European countries are developing new low-pressure spool technologies for turbofans – geared and non-geared -, with bypass ratios of between 12:1 and 20:1 and overall pressure ratios of between 50:1 and 70:1. Major players from the European aero engine industry – including Avio Aero, GKN Aerospace, Industria de Turbo Propulsores, MTU, Rolls-Royce, Snecma, Techspace Aero and Turbomeca – cooperate in ENOVAL with SMEs from the aeronautics sector and academic and research organizations.
