International joint venture (JV) FADEC Alliance has been chosen to design and develop the electronic control system for the CFM International RISE demonstrator engine programme. FADEC Alliance is a JV between US-based global major aeroengine company GE Aerospace and FADEC International.

RISE is an acronym for Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engines. It is a demonstrator programme to prove capabilities and concepts needed for the next-generation CFM engine, including such technologies as open fan architecture, electrified engine accessories, hybrid-electric capability, and hydrogen propulsion. CFM hopes to develop its next-generation engine by the mid-2030s.

“We are excited to work with our industry partners on the CFM RISE programme and help introduce innovative technologies to set a new bar for future aircraft engine performance and create a more sustainable form of aviation,” affirmed FADEC Alliance CEO Steven McCullough.

The design and development of the RISE control system architecture, demonstrator requirements and multiple subsystems will take place in two phases. The work will be carried out at both the BAE Systems facility at Endicott in the US state of New York, and at the Safran facility at Massy, in France.

The first phase of the project will focus on developing an expanded control system to accommodate the new interfaces required by an open fan engine concept. The second phase will tackle essential aspects of the advanced systems of the engine.  

GE Aerospace is part of the US-based global major conglomerate General Electric. FADEC International is a 50:50 JV between US-based BAE Systems Controls (part of the UK-based global major aerospace and defence group BAE Systems) and France-based Safran Electronics and Defence, and was set up some 25 years ago. CFM International is also a 50:50 JV, between GE Aerospace and France-based major aeroengine company Safran Aircraft Engines.
