The provision of adequate thermal management is becoming increasingly challenging on both military and civil aircraft. This is due to significant growth in the magnitude of onboard heat loads, but also because of their ...

The work presents the application of a new computational framework, addressing future preliminary design needs for aircraft subsystems. The ability to investigate multiple candidate technologies forming subsystem architectures ...

With the advent of more electric airframe systems and ultra-high bypass ratio turbofan engines, there is growing interest in the associated thermal implications. In this research project, an aircraft level model that is ...

The development of increasingly more electric systems and ultra high bypass ratio turbofan engines for civil transport aircraft is projected to bring forth critical challenges regarding thermal management. To address these, ...
