Company LOGO ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY CONCEPTS
Company LOGO Boom Shaping : Dihedral Increase Effective Length – Multi-plane lifting surface – Mitigates Boom overpressure Potential Issues – Wash out subsonic lateral instabilities – Low planform area Lift is reduced – Structural Considerations
Company LOGO Boom Shaping : Effective Area Distribution Smooth area distribution – Gradual lift development Long chord of wing root – Fuselage diameter morphing – Aircraft length Engine Nacelle Placement – Area rule Canards – High dihedral
Company LOGO Boom Shaping : Nose Design Blunt nose – Create strong bow shock Mitigate subsequent shocks, overpressure – Supersonic Area rule – High wave drag Nose keel – Alternate option – Unverified results – Material Problems
Company LOGO Efficient Supersonic Cruise Wing Characteristics – High AR, low sweep for efficient supersonic Laminar flow supersonic wing – Low AR, high sweep for shock mitigation – Need to achieve acceptable trade-off Active flow management – Attached flow on wing – “Phantom Body” Artificial area
Company LOGO Engines
Company LOGO Engines – lb thrust is needed – Samara NK-321 Produced by Kuznetsov Design Bureau Entered service in 1987 Used on Tupolev Tu-144LL Noise problem
Company LOGO Engine Noise : Solutions – Adaptive Cycle Engine (ACE) extra bypass duct on the outside of the engine quiet on take off and landing Significant improvement in subsonic flight – Eccentric Exhaust Configuration Decrease the effective perceived noise by 10.5 dB

Company LOGO Average Component Weights For 16 Commercial Aircraft
Company LOGO Calculated Component Weights (Corrected)
Company LOGO Center of Gravity Utilized Derived Component Weights Includes All Major Component Weights, Most Minor Weights – Includes: Fuel, Wing, Tail, Canard, Engines, Fuselage, Furnishings, Passengers, etc. – Does Not Include: Baggage, Air Conditioning, Anti-Icing System Placement was not accurate enough at this stage
Company LOGO Center of Gravity Location (at MTOW) ≈ 97 ft – Roughly 57% of the total length of the aircraft – Estimation includes 87% of the take off gross weight of the aircraft Likely to change, but not significantly
