Objectives
This project concerns the preliminary design of a business jet, with given specifications (number of passengers, range, runaway length...). The interactions of the global design choices are investigated with simplified models, using an iterative approach. This project is supported by Dassault Aviation.
Keywords
business jet, preliminary design
Programme
This project consists of two phases: Phase 1: analyse and complete a pre-design tool, then use it to design an aircraft with given specifications. Phase 2: deepening. For example: realization of a wing model and evaluation in wind tunnel, improvement of pre-design models, study of sensitivities...
Learning Outcomes
- Identify the influence of the aircraft design parameters on the performance.
- Elaborate and implement a multi-disciplinary design process.
- Propose and assess models for preliminary design.
Assesment
Evaluation of the intermediate and final deliverables, including spreadsheets and oral presentation.
