4. TURBO POWER TURBO POWER – Phase 2, 2012 – 2015
Consortium between 4 universities (Chalmers, KTH, LTH and LiTH) and two turbo machinery manufacturing companies. (Siemens, GKN Aerospace Sweden AB)
Observing parties – Vattenfall AB and E.ON Värmekraft Sverige AB.
Phase 2: 2012 – 2016, MSEK 120, 50% governmental funding from Swedish Energy Agency, 50% counter effects from the companies
13 R&D projects at the universities with focus on results, integrated with development projects and activities at the industries.
5 research areas: COMP (compressor – aeromechanics), COMB (combustion), TURB (aerodynamics and cooling), LIFE (life prediction) and PROCESS (process development)
Present 24 active students/PhD's in university projects 4

8. Selection process Call 1 – Phase 2
Fulfil overall goals by Swedish Energy Agency

9. Evaluation criteria Sustainable energy within the society
Industrial competiveness
Visionary and usefulness
Scientific level
Strong nodes/research areas
Each criteria contains:
sub levels with points (1-3), project comments and mutual comparison
summary and complete overview
resulted in 12 projects + 1 pre-study project (PROCESS53)

10. Project distribution target areas

11. Distribution of project budget

12. Conclusions
The figures of the target areas (Environment, Commercial, Competence) shows that TURBO POWER well contributes to research within environmental friendly projects. Although maybe not completely CO2 free processes, but substantial CO2 reduction and renewals
We can also see a great effort and focus being done with enhanced competence and development of new technologies. This work is performed under close relationship and high relevance to the industries.
Regarding commercial aspects we have to target more on future demonstrations and find ways how to allocate new interested parties outside TURBO POWER to be involved in coming projects.
