Fans designed for Madrid Fly’s vertical wind tunnel succesfully tested
On April 10th, the first of the 4 fans for skydiving purposes jointly designed by KeelWit and Zitron was tested in the biggest test bench for axial fans in the world. With a size over 4m diameter and a weight exceeding 10 tons each, they shall deliver the needed power to propel skydivers at a speed of 300 km/h. Energy efficiency, acceleration speed and airflow quality have been some of the development guidelines followed by both engineering teams. These fans shall be installed in a very short time in Madrid Fly’s wind tunnel, where the construction of the building that shall host all the technical equipment and devices designed by KeelWit Technology, has just...

KeelWit Technology travels to Brasil searching for new business opportunities
Isaac Prada has traveled to Brazil to analyze the possibility to locally develop projects in some of KeelWit’s areas of expertise, establishing partnerships with local companies. The main meetings were held with the Brazilian Association of Cotton Producers, SINDUSCON (Syndicate of Building Companies) and the Ministry of Mining and Energy (through its program “Power for all”). The meetings were focused on possible energy efficiency projects in industries and distributed energy resource systems. Additionally Isaac also explained the way KeelWit uses CFD analyses to face engineering challenges and wind tunnel testing as a tool for product development. The conclusion of the trip were several engagements of exploring the synergies found and their application on different projects to be detailed during a future trip the first semester of...

KeelWit Technology attends the Franco-Spanish Congress about R&D in the water domain
The Science and Technology Spanish Foundation (FECYT), together with the French Embassy in Madrid, has organized the “Franco-Spanish Congress about R&D in the water domain”, event which allowed attendees to known first hand and discuss the main research news in the water field, as well as the different financing opportunities and the distinct European initiatives in such field, highlighting the 2020 Horizon and the Acqueau cluster. The great participation of different governmental institutions, private companies and universities has made this event a success, putting in contact many Spanish and French companies among them. During the congress, José María Cancer, partner of KeelWit Technology explained its previous experience implementing energy efficiency improvements for cooling towers, heat exchangers, condensers, ejectors and heat recovery systems inter alia, in order to find foreign partners to carry out international research projects. As a result KeelWit Technology is now a member of both R&D Platforms as an engineering company offering its know-how for R&D projects in this domain: http://www.acqueau.eu/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/ACQUEAU_Find-a-partner-template-offering-expertise-KEELWIT-TECHNOLOGY.pdf To read more about the contents of the congress, visit: http://eshorizonte2020.es/actualidad/noticias/disponibles-las-presentaciones-de-la-jornada-seminario-franco-espanol-sobre-i-d-en-el-dominio-del-agua http://www.ambafrance-es.org/El-24-de-octubre-2014-Seminario...Latest news
