Since October 2017, the LEDF engine has been extended by a new gas mixing section. Separate tanks for the supply of CO2 and propane were installed at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Marine Technology of the University of Rostock.
Based on the successful LEDF project, the follow-up project LEDF2 has been launched since 01. October 2016. The extended processing time allows further research until 30. September 2020. For this purpose, we are supported by additional partners from the industry.
On September the 17th the buildup phase of the test bed was officially accomplished. To celebrate this project milestone we invited many of our suppliers and supporters.
After the installation of the engine our staff was really looking forward to present the test bed to the gathered expert audience. So we used the evening before the 3rd Rostocker Großmotorentagung to invite our guests to a social evening into our machine laboratory.
Last week our new single cylinder engine was delivered. A specialist company from Hamburg realized the insertion into the machine laboratory of the LKV. Only therefor a transportable hydraulic lift system was installed beside the new engine basement.
