TRL 4.0 – Innovation Incubator

Project title:

Luminescent-labeled Solvent Quenching Pressure Sensitive Paints (SQ-PSP) dedicated to tests in wind tunnels.

Principal investigator: MSc. Eng. Maciej Pilch

Obtained funds: 66 430 PLN

Project duration: Start day: 23.04.2021 – End day: 22.04.2022

Short description of the project:

The aim of the project is product innovation:

  • Solvent Quenching Pressure Sensitive Paints (SQ-PSP) with a new SQ type luminescent sensor (the product includes the composition of the coating and the method of applying these coatings to aerodynamic models).
  • Implementation of the pressure mapping technology, developed in the Applied Photochemistry Laboratory at the Cracow University of Technology, with the use of NEW Solvent Quenching Pressure Sensitive Paints (SQ-PSP) for aerodynamic tests carried out by the Wind Engineering Laboratory (Faculty of Civil Engineering) at the Cracow University of Technology on request of external companies, operating in the field of air pressure mapping.
