Pugh’s Method Process Eight designs were generated and sketched. A baseline concept was chosen to be the reference or datum. Each design was evaluated for each criterion Each design was assigned a ‘+’,’-’, or ‘s’ based from the datum. All criteria was equally weighted. The ‘+’,’-’, and ‘s’ were totaled The two concepts with the most ‘+’ were discussed and chosen A second Pugh’s method was run with a different concept being the datum. The results were collected as with the first run. Two concepts were selected for further investigation.

Engine Selection Engine type: Geared Turbofan Gearbox allows fan to run at lower speeds than compressor and turbine, improving efficiency. Provides 12%-15% improvement in fuel burn range, 50% NOx emissions reduction, and 20 dB decrease from level 4 noise standards 20 Courtesy of TosakaCourtesy of Airliners.net

Engine Sizing Approach Using NASA Geared Turbofan data to approximate baseline performance of engine Plan to use data to find fuel flow and SFC curve fit predictions as function of Mach #, altitude, and throttle setting Will need to use adjustment factors to size engine to thrust requirements of aircraft Also adjustment factors for implemented technologies will also need to be incorporated 21

36
Sizing Code Using MATLAB software, first order method from Raymer Used several inputs to determine the size of pre- existing aircraft for validation 36
37
Status of Sizing Code Currently the code calculates coefficients of lift and drag needed for fuel burn predictions Future work needed includes the component weight build up 37
38
Incorporating Drag 38 Drag values affect the sizing and are necessary in order to predict the takeoff weight Included in the equation are the parasitic, induced, and wave drag
