- 'Iphiko Lakusasa' lifinyelela ingqophamlando ngokuhlangana kohlobo lwayo lokuqala lwephiko eligcwele.
- Uhlelo olusha lwe-Airbus luzothuthukisa ukuqonda ngokukhiqizwa kwamaphiko nokwenziwa kwezimboni.
- Izimpiko ezintathu zosayizi ogcwele zizokwenziwa ngokuphelele ngaphansi kohlelo 'lwePhiko Lakusasa'.
I-'Phiko Lakusasa ', uhlelo olukhulu lwe-Airbus lokucwaninga nobuchwepheshe, selufinyelele ingqophamlando enkulu ngokuhlanganiswa kohlobo lwaso lokuqala lwephiko olugcwele.
Uhlelo lweWing of Tomorrow ngeke luvivinye kuphela izinto zokwakha zakamuva nobuchwepheshe obusha ku-aerodynamics kanye nokwakhiwa kwamaphiko kepha, okubalulekile, ukuhlola ukuthi ukukhiqizwa kwamaphiko nokukhiqizwa kwezimboni kungathuthukiswa kanjani ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zesikhathi esizayo njengoba umkhakha uvela kulo bhubhane.
Izimpiko ezintathu zosayizi ogcwele zizokwenziwa ngokuphelele: eyodwa izosetshenziselwa ukuqonda ukuhlanganiswa kwezinhlelo; umzuzwana uzohlolwa ngokwakhiwa ukuze uqhathaniswe nokwenziwa kwekhompiyutha, ngenkathi ingxenye yesithathu izoqoqelwa ukuvivinya ukukhiqizwa kokukhuliswa futhi kuqhathaniswe nokwenziwa kwezimboni.
USabine Klauke, Airbus Umphathi Omkhulu Wezobuchwepheshe, uthe: “Iphiko Lakusasa, okuyingxenye ebaluleke kakhulu yephothifoliyo ye-R & T ye-Airbus, izosisiza ukuthi sihlolisise ukuthi kungenzeka yini ukuthi izimboni zikhiqize ukukhiqizwa kwamaphiko esikhathini esizayo. Ubuchwepheshe bephiko obusebenza kahle bungesinye sezixazululo eziningi - kanye namafutha asimeme endiza kanye ne-hydrogen - esingayisebenzisa ukufaka isandla ekuzimiseleni kwezokundiza kwezindiza. Iphiko Lakusasa nalo liyisibonelo sokuthi ukubambisana embonini enkulu kuzobaluleka kanjani ekufezeni uhlelo lomkhakha wethu lwekusasa eliqhubekayo. ”
Iphiko Lakusasa, elixhaswe ingxenye yi-Aerospace Technology Institute yase-UK, wuhlelo lwe-Airbus oluhlanganisa amazwe omhlaba ngokugcwele olubandakanya abalingani bomhlaba wonke kanye namaqembu atholakala kumasayithi ase-Airbus aseYurophu, kufaka phakathi Bremen eJalimane, lapho iqembu le-'Wing Moveables 'lizinze khona. Ababhikishi abathathu bamaphiko bazohlanganisa ubuchwepheshe obusha obungaphezu kwekhulu ukuze kuhlolwe amasu amasha okukhiqiza nawokuhlanganisa ngenhloso yokwenza ezokundiza zisimame kakhulu.
Ukuqoqwa kwesembozo sephiko esiyinkimbinkimbi kwenzeke endaweni yakwa-Airbus 'eFilton, eNgilandi, njengoba yenziwe eNational Composite Center eBristol. Isembozo sephiko nengxenye enkulu evela kwa-GKN Aerospace - i-Fixed Trailing Edge - zilethwe e-Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre, eWales, esikhungweni esikhiqiza iphiko le-Airbus eBroughton, eFlintshire, ukuze kuqale umhlangano.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- Uhlelo lweWing of Tomorrow ngeke luvivinye kuphela izinto zokwakha zakamuva nobuchwepheshe obusha ku-aerodynamics kanye nokwakhiwa kwamaphiko kepha, okubalulekile, ukuhlola ukuthi ukukhiqizwa kwamaphiko nokukhiqizwa kwezimboni kungathuthukiswa kanjani ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zesikhathi esizayo njengoba umkhakha uvela kulo bhubhane.
- ‘Wing of Tomorrow', a major Airbus research and technology program, has reached a key milestone with the assembly of its first full-size wing prototype.
- Wing of Tomorrow, part-funded by the UK's Aerospace Technology Institute, is a fully transnational Airbus program involving global partners and teams across Airbus' European sites, including Bremen in Germany, where the ‘Wing Moveables' team is based.
