• Master Thesis - Visionary Aircraft Concepts

  • Mar 2020 - Sep 2020

  Master Thesis "Numerical Prediction of Turbulent Boundary Layer Characteristics to Feed the Design of Propulsive Fuselages". Propulsive Fuselages use the concept of Boundary Layer Ingestion to attempt increasing the propulsion efficiency of an aircraft by adding an annular aft fan. The project covers: - Development of Python-Tool to evaluate the boundary layer around the fuselage and its aerodynamics. Programming of integral method that provides the viscous drag and information on the non-uniform flow at the inlet of the new engine; - Provisioning of flow parameters that enable the decision-making in the conceptual design phase of the aircraft. - Validation of the tool with experimental data and CFD simulation (OpenFOAM) of the air flow around the fuselage.
