The INFRASEAL (Development of research Infrastructure for rotating labyrinth Seals characterization) is a complementary activity to the Clean Sky topic 'Airflow characterization through rotating labyrinth seal' under the Engine research platform. This project aims to expand the capabilities for advanced experimental and numerical investigations in order to characterise the airflow through rotating labyrinth seals for higher paramenters engines. These extended capabilities are meants to provide the foundation for extending the usability of the Ultra-High Propulsive Efficiency (UHPE) demonstrator validated for Short/Medium Range aircraft market.
