INVENTOR WP3-WP4 Technical Progress Meeting
Bristol University (UK)
Bristol Engineers'House
30th and 31th of January 2023
One conclusion of the TRM-PMM-2 held in ONERA Châtillon on June 20-21, 2022, was that the total time of about 2h30 (per WP) allotted to the review of technical activities in WP3 and WP4 was obviously not sufficient to go into the required details, especially considering that these two WPs are the core of INVENTOR, gathering all activities devoted to the experimental and numerical study of all noise reduction technologies, and the selection of the most promising ones to be tested in WP5.
This is why it has been decided to organize a special 2-day meeting (not planned in the original Grant Agreement) at midway between TRM-PMM1 and TRM-PMM2, only focused on the technical activities of WP3 and WP4, excluding reporting on WP2 (specifications, activities almost terminated), WP5 (assessment at aircraft level, activities barely started) and WP1/WP6 (management/dissemination).
Our colleagues from the University of Bristol kindly offered to home the meeting, which was held on January 30-31 2023 at the Engineer’s House of Bristol. Again, a Webex link was proposed by Erdyn colleagues to allow a remote access to the meeting.
This meeting gathered an attendance of 32 persons (including 20 on-site). The first full day was devoted to a WP3 with a 5h50 session, and the second day to WP4 with a 6h15 session.
On Monday January 30th, just after the WP3 session, attendees moved to the University in Bristol Center, where our local colleagues organized a visit of their laboratory and facilities, including the AAWT anechoic wind tunnel used in INVENTOR. After the visit, 18 present participants gathered in the Browns restaurant close to the university for an unformal meeting dinner.
