In context of Horizon Europe

This grant€2.5M
The track runs to the largest grant in Horizon Europe (€171M). The median across the 482 calls we publish is €5.3M, this one is below it.

What this call funds

Expected Outcome:

Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:

  • Airframe / cabin noise for new aircraft design;
  • Engine noise sources and installation effects;
  • Noise perception/annoyance and mitigation methodologies.

Scope:

The topic aims to deliver advanced and validated numerical and experimental aero-acoustic methodologies for the noise prediction of new ultraefficient aircraft designs, primarily for large passenger aircraft with new open fan engine architectures and ultra-high by-pass ratio architectures.

The topic should reinforce fundamental understanding, fill gaps and propose new/updated technologies towards enabling open fan designs and techno bricks for significantly reduced cabin noise. Mayor emphasis is expected to be put to existing/new experimental data and procedures, multi-disciplinary design and optimisation, aerodynamics, aeroacoustics and noise reduction integrated metamaterials/structures.

In addition, the proposals may also provide even better noise footprint assessments and better annoyance understanding and mitigation methodologies.

The topic should build upon lessons learnt and gaps identified from H2020.CS2-LPA-01-D01 as well as complementing the projects resulted from HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-12.

These are Bemzu's estimates from the call's structure (the number of stages and whether a consortium is required) not figures published by the Commission. Only the co-financing share is read from the call itself.

Where these conditions come from

Two kinds of row. Most are the sentence we read the condition from, quoted out of the call itself. Some say plainly that they are not a quotation but the programme's own rule for this type of action, the EU portal publishes a table of contents where the conditions should be, so for a Research and Innovation Action the rate comes from the rulebook rather than from the fiche.

ConditionQuoted from the call, or the rule behind it
Consortium sizeNot quoted from this call — Research and Innovation Actions under the Horizon Europe rules are at least three independent legal entities from three different Member States or Associated Countries, at least one established in a Member State.
Funding rateNot quoted from this call — Research and Innovation Actions under the Horizon Europe rules are funded at 100% of eligible costs for every participant.
