High Speed Propulsion: Engine Design - Integration and Thermal Management - RTO / VKI Lecture Series
|
|
Hypersonic systems will provide a revolution in commercial
transport, space access (lower power density), and military
missions (global reach in 2 hours). The objective of this
RTO lecture series is to provide clear guidelines regarding
the design of the propulsion unit and integration into the
airframe.

| Description: |
Hypersonic systems will provide a revolution in
commercial transport, space access (lower power density),
and military missions (global reach in 2 hours). Although
hypersonic technology has significantly matured over the
last 40 years, technical challenges remain. The objective of
this RTO lecture series is to provide clear guidelines
regarding the design of the propulsion unit and integration
into the airframe. First the intake physics, design and
optimization will be addressed. Turbine based cycles and
rocket based cycles will be considered. An important issue
to be discussed is the thermal management of both the engine
and vehicle. Issues related to the potential use of new
synthetic fuels will also be addressed.
The Director of this VKI/RTO Lecture Series is Prof. G.
Paniagua of the von Karman Institute.
