Wings of Glory: The DBF competition is held every year in the United States. The aim is to carry out a special mission using a model aircraft. A team has less than 6 months to assemble, decide on the design, build the model, carry out the flight tests - and leave in April for this international competition.

 

Image: that's a joke. We just gave a bit of money and said a few encouraging words.
That being said, we are very glad that we did it!

We are very happy to be presenting our company to our peers in gas turbine technology on 27 March 2025 at the EUROTURBO conference in Hannover. We will be taking part in the EVI-GTI panel (gas turbine instrumentation).

We'll have the opportunity to talk about our results from the crystAIr project, where we're evaluating monitoring techniques using artificial intelligence, compared with conventional monitoring of hydrogen combustion.

 

 

Oh yes, that's right: on the same day, CBOne will be 13 years old!!! She has an interesting cake (picture) and she's an interesting teenager J

IRON LIQORNE: C'est parti!

IRON bird for LIQuid hydrogen in airbORNE applications

LIQORNE was a project to develop technologies for advanced thermal management of liquid hydrogen for aviation applications. Following the pilot project's success, CBOne is passing the baton to the FH Joanneum / Aviation team, who will lead this new phase, called IRON LIQORNE, towards creating an iron bird demonstrator.

Published on Tuesday, 07 January 2025 08:12

We proudly present our new project on Recursive Sequential Combustion development: MOeBIUS.H ! This is a joint forces project between Combustion Bay One e.U. and Graz University of Technology / Institute of Turbomachinery and Machine Dynamics.

 The major milestones of this 3-years project are:

  • Progress in fuel placement and optimum mixing with fresh air and burnt gases. The study of hydrogen mixedness in this context will be studied in the frame of a PhD thesis
  • Constant section combustor: an ultra compact combustor with a breakthrough architecture will be tested in the frame of this study

Ôh Toulouse...

CBOne is pleased to be present at the 26th Conference of the International Society for Air Breathing, in Claude Nougaro's city from 22 to 27 September 2024.

 

Mrs Andrea Hofer from CBOne will present the successful demonstration of Sequential Recursive Combustion, a safe and robust lean-burn concept for aviation.

Paper 157:    Experimental Validation of a Recursive Sequential Combustor and Study of the Model   

Sequential recursive combustion is a proprietary CBOne technology that we have been working on since the early 2020s. Recently, thanks to an approach that makes good use of additive manufacturing methods, we have been able for the first time to achieve sequential recursive combustion using multiple burners arranged in a loop. The results in terms of good emission performance and lean flame robustness are there for all to see.
