Basque research group Tekniker has joined Spanish aerospace technology centre CTA on an INTA project to develop leading-edge instruments for testing modern low-pressure turbines. Technological improvements in aircraft engines depend on how much is known about the phenomena occurring in different phases, with measurements in combustion chamber and turbine being absolutely crucial. This is the task CTA is now facing, with backup and support from Tekniker on the development of manufacturing techniques for the micro-sensors required.
