  • The aerodynamics of aero-engine Nacalles. 
    Robinson, Matthew H. (2018-02)
    This thesis deals with the aerodynamics of aero-engine nacelles with a focus on the influence of a short and slim nacelle design on the drag performance. As turbofan engines are designed with increasingly reduced specific ...
  • Aerodynamics of propulsion system integration for modern aero-engines. 
    Stańkowski, Tomaz Piotr (2016-09)
    Over the past years, the fan diameter of a turbofan engine for commercial aircraft tended to increase and based on the requirement to improve the propulsive efficiency it is expected that the engine diameter will continue ...
  • Computational aerodynamics for open rotor tip vortex interaction noise prediction 
    Elson, Tom (Cranfield University, 2015-11)
    Open rotor engines can provide fuel savings of up to twenty seven percent compared to a modern high bypass turbofan engine. They were subject to intense research in the 1980s in response to the 1973 oil crisis. They have ...
  • Experimental and computational aerodynamic studies of convoluted intake ducts. 
    Tanguy, Geoffrey (2018-08)
    Complex aero-engine intakes for embedded propulsion systems are expected to play a major role in the next generation of aircraft. However, convoluted intake diffusers can lead to the development of distorted flows with ...
  • Modelling the aerodynamics of an aero-engine exhaust system 
    Al-Akam, Aws Akram Mahmood (2018-04)
    Aero-engine design is one of the most demanding tasks when the aircraft is constructed. The selection of the engine component’s size and geometrical features depends on the assurance that the losses are minimal. The exhaust ...
  • Propulsion system integration and modelling synthesis 
    Christie, Robert (Cranfield University, 2016-07)
    Concerns over fuel costs, along with the ever increasing requirement to reduce the impact of emissions, means that the world's airlines continue to introduce low-noise and more fuel-efficient aircraft into their fleet. ...
