INEGI is housed in a partnership boosted by SRE Soluções Racionais de Energia, SA, which also includes the INETI - National Institute of Engineering Technology and Innovation for development of power sources based on fuel cells and solutions to containerisation and distribution hydrogen. In 2005, developed power supplies for low power (up to 500W) based on fuel cell power systems for portable and mobile. After three years of work was launched by the SRE first product in the global market, a power supply 100W designated HW 125. EDEN First Power Supply Fuel Cells to Hydrogen HW 125 Development of New Energies The EDEN project aims to boost the overall creation of a national technology platform that enables the maximization of opportunities for the national economy and technology, resulting from the emergence of the Hydrogen Economy. This is a project led by SRE - Rational Energy Solutions and with the participation of other entities of SCTN, INETI and STIs, and other companies with interests in the energy sector. 24 WIND POWER Since its foundation, the Institute of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management (INEGI) has taken an important role in the study of non-conventional energy sources and in the field of energy savings and rational use. Through the involvement in the study of wind energy and its applications, INEGI intends to support the development of renewable energy technologies, contributing to the diversification of energy sources for electricity production and to the environmental preservation. Since 1991 INEGI has a team especially devoted to wind energy. Beyond the planning and conduction of wind resource assessment campaigns INEGI offers nowadays several other services related with the topic. Among others are wind farm productivity calculations and layout optimization, technical and economical feasibility studies, support in the preparation of call for tenders and in the licensing process, evaluation of tender offers and comparison of solutions, wind turbines performance evaluation and warranty verifications, due diligences, project evaluation for finance institutions and supporting officials in territory planning actions. In a first stage restricted to the North and Centre regions of Portugal the activities of INEGI in the wind energy domain have been extended to all the Portuguese territory and, since 1999, to foreign countries. Taking advantage of the experience gathered in the participation of its collaborators in international projects, INEGI adopted methodologies and techniques that enable the Institute to offer to its clients high level services. Being in contact with similar institutes and specialists from whole Europe, and through the presence in international conferences, workshops and seminars, INEGI wants to be aware about new developments and updated in technologies and knowledge. EPREV Predicting Wind Energy Production In the form of contract with a group of complementary businesses (EPREV - ENERNOVA, Finerge, GALP Energy, Generg, EDF EN, TECNEIRA and TELENER - in a consortium), this project has as partners, in addition to INESC-Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering, the FEUP - Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto, the ICAT - Institute of Applied Science and Technology and IM - Institute of Meteorology. The aim of this project is to develop models for forecasting the production of electricity from a wind energy base.

TURBOCHARGERS Development and implementation of foundry processes for turbochargers impellers In partnership with ZOLLERN, INEGI has developed a foundry process under vacuum for turbochargers for automobile applications, using foundry technology in plaster molding with silicon moulds. The final purpose was the establishment of a new industrial unit in ZOLLERN, which began in December 2006, able to produce 1.000.000 turbochargers/year in aluminium. Under the present partnership a new manufacturing process for turbocharger impellers in titanium alloys is also being developed. This project comprises the development of melting and pouring technologies for titanium alloys, in ceramic moulds, to obtain high performance impellers. 30 AERONAUTICS AND SPACE INEGI’S Participation in Aeronautics and Space Engineering research and development has grown consistently in recent years and is mainly focused on Composite Materials, Experimental Mechanics and Product Development. NAREMA UAV Client: ESA – European Space Agency Unmanned civil aviation system development Partners: HPS-GmbH (Líder) (DE), UPatras (GR), DLR (DE), Kayser-Trade (DE), Arianespace (FR), OHB Systems (DE), ICOTEC (SW) e INEGI (PT). The development of the civil aviation unmanned system involves three components. The first is the production of an aircraft with approximately 5 meters in wingspan and a length of 3.5 m (most of the structure built in composite materials which will design a vehicle lighter and more reliable). The second is the development and application of various sensors on the aircraft allowing image capture or temperature and position data, among others. The third the design and development of ground control systems that will allow tasks scheduling, remote control of the aircraft and reception of data during the aircraft missions. There are 12 entities involved in this project both of them included in the Portuguese Industrial Aerospace Consortium (PAIC): INEGI, Active Space Technologies, CeNTI, Critical Software, EDISOFT, Empordef, Ibermoldes, legs, FCI, Spin.Works, and Skysoft Tekever. The main objective of this project is the production of fiber reinforced polymer composites and carbon nanotubes (CNT and CFRP) to improve the properties and structures of launchers and spacecrafts. 31 DEAM CASAM Development of an European Ablative Material for Heatshields of Sample Return Missions Civil Aircraft Security Against MANPADS The project, which involves the HPS Portugal (leader), INEGI, EADS-Astrium (France) and Lockheed Martin INSYS (UK), aims to develop a new material for thermal protection systems for atmospheric re-entry vehicles. The goal is to develop a material resistant to very high temperatures to be used in the next ESA mission to Mars. The main purpose of CASAM project is the development of a system to detect and misguide portable missiles from terrorist attacks (MANPADS) to civil aircrafts. The missile detection will be made by using an optical system with sensors able to detect infrared rays’ emission by the missile propulsor. This is an optic-mechanical system of high precision and with very tight requirements in terms of weight and stability. Partners: DIEHL-BGT, EADS, LUFTHANSA, ONERA, SAGEM, THALES NACO Nanocomposites Project Aproved by the end of 2006 under the GSTP (General Support and Technology Program of ESA), the project NACO - Non-conventional matrix/carbon nanotube composites, research the use of composites in organic and inorganic matrix reinforced with carbon nanotubes. The project is led by HPS in Germany and with the participation of Austrian Research Centers, Carbon Future, EADS, Pieper, among other companies and institutes. The interventions of the INEGI are concentrated at the beginning of the project, with a review of the state of the art, and end with testing performances for characterization of nanocomposites. 32 SEA ECONOMY Portugal has a strong connection to the sea. This connection comes from history and culture, and the economic and social dimension has evolved over the years. The sea is a place for discovery, work, business and leisure. The sea exploitation is important for the areas of health, fisheries, shipbuilding industries, shipping transports and energy. It’s a source that has a significant economic value, through the modernization and innovation of the so-called traditional maritime activities, or through the emergence of new economic activities with high value added (biotechnology, energy, robotics, etc.). AUTONOMOUS SUBMARINE DEVELOPMENT INEGI collaborates, since 1999, in development of autonomous submarines (AUVs and ROVs) with the Laboratory for Underwater Systems and Technologies (LSTS) Institute for Systems and Robotics (ISR) a research unit hosted at the University of Porto. This long term collaboration aimed at developing a family of underwater autonomous vehicles and monitoring systems. In it, INEGI’s role is the design and development, production and integration of all mechanical and structural solutions for the vehicles, while ISR’s activity is linked to the electrical and electronic systems, software and vehicle control and mission planning. This project, which pushed INEGI’s capacities for design, prototyping, manufacturing and mechanical testing delivered the first nAUV (new Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) in 2005 and saw, in 2006, the delivery of the first Remotely Operated underwater Vehicle (ROV). WAVE ENERGY CONVERSION SYSTEM INEGI was responsible for the development of the very large shaft-bushing system which is integrated in the design of the wave energy conversion project WAVE at Martifer. In this project INEGI and Martifer implemented a full systems’ engineering approach which allowed systematic selection of candidate architectures and definition of functional requirements for system design and bushing development. In parallel with the shaft-bushing design work packages INEGI was also involved in the testing of materials, development of test systems and laboratory testing of specific subsystems. Partners: MARTIFER 33 RAIA Oceanographic Observatory. This project is the result of a common strategy assumed by the two regions northwest of Iberia (Portugal and Spain) achieving a deep knowledge of the ocean. GSM-GPRS INEGI has 2 main goals on this project: Radar Reflector 1. Project and construction of a new type of “SPAR” buoy. Light Signaling Sonic anemometer 2.
