Analysis of turbofan propulsion system weight and dimensions [PDF]

Weight and dimensional relationships that are used in aircraft preliminary design studies are analyzed. These relationships are relatively simple to prove useful to the preliminary designer, but they are sufficiently detailed to provide meaningful design

Conceptual design synthesis of fighter aircraft

, 2020
The aim of this thesis is to analyze the effects of initial engine scaling (using a competitor aircraft aerodynamic performance) on fighter aircraft conceptual design activities. A design synthesis including engine scaling, configuration development, fixed aircraft analysis, fixed wing aircraft sizing and optimization methodology has been developed ...

A computer module used to calculate the horizontal control surface size of a conceptual aircraft design [PDF]

The creation of a computer module used to calculate the size of the horizontal control surfaces of a conceptual aircraft design is discussed. The control surface size is determined by first calculating the size needed to rotate the aircraft during ...
