6 Concept Generation Each group member generated ten different concepts. From those ten concepts each member chose their top two designs. Then the group voted on those designs to get the top four designs. The top four designs were further developed and then discussed.

L/D = 23 High M (cruise)High Mach number in cruise configuration (M>0.76) High TO ThrustHigh Take-Off Thrust available from engines. Passenger Comfort Ability to provide enough space to keep passengers comfortable. Low Door Sill Height Low door sill height (low landing gear) to allow access at terminals with limited service (no jet ways) (h<9 ft.) Low NoiseLow noise pollution (db<75db) Low Complexity Low system complexity to reduce cost and increase safety/reliability. Low Weight Low weight to decrease acquisition cost, including low empty weight fraction. SafetyHigh safety, low system component failure rates.

17 Sizing Approach Sizing done using methods found in “Aircraft Design: A Conceptual Approach” by Daniel Raymer. Using these methods Arrival created MATLAB script files to complete sizing.

19 Advanced Concepts Trade Study After applying Pugh’s Method, the “surviving” configuration concepts were compared to select the final ideal configuration. Two concepts, a design based off of the Boeing “Fozzie” concept, only with GTF engines and a modified tail, and a low-mounted FSW concept with Canards and USB.
20
20 Advanced Concepts Trade Study The FSW concept won out due to the ability to mount the wings further aft. This means the main gear can be mounted further aft and thus increase the rotation angle on takeoff, thus helping Arrival meet its ESTOL requirement.

23 UDF and GTF provided a conservative savings of 15% each. Optimistic savings were 20% (per Bombardier) for GTF and 25% for UDF. Bombardier’s estimate selected, then projected based on the trend in SFC reduction vs. certification date found on Slide 15.

24 USB provided a C Lmax of 5 on the YC- 14. Blown flaps had a C Lmax of 5 to 7 on the YC-15. USB exceeds Arrival’s conservative C Lmax assumption of 4. YC-14 YC-15 Advanced Technology Study Upper-Surface Blowing, Blown Flaps TRL 8

25 Advantages: Lower sweep angle for same shock sweep Increased thickness-to-chord ratio Control surfaces stall at higher AOA Higher C L at low speeds Primary Disadvantage: Weight penalty to avoid structural divergence Solution: Advanced composite materials may be used to tailor the structural divergence.

26 To delay leading-edge separation over the wing and control surfaces. How it works: “The process of ionizing the air in this configuration is classically known as a single dielectric barrier discharge. The ionized air (plasma) in the presence of an electric field gradient produces a body force on the ambient air, inducing a virtual aerodynamic shape that causes a change in the pressure distribution over the surface on which the actuator is placed. The air near the electrodes is weakly ionized, and there is little or no heating of the air.” Demonstrated in laboratory and on a sailplane fitted with plasma actuators.
