Performance assessment of a Multi-fuel Hybrid Engine for Future Aircraft

This paper presents performance assessment of the proposed hybrid engine concept using Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) and kerosene. The multi-fuel hybrid engine is a new engine concept integrated with contra rotating fans, sequential dual combustion chambers to facilitate “Energy Mix” in aviation and a Cryogenic Bleed Air Cooling System (CBACS). The...

Modeling and Characteristics of a Novel Multi-fuel Hybrid Engine for Future Aircraft

Civil air transportation has undergone significant expansion over the past decades and is continuing to grow. Nevertheless, the tendency of energy depletion and the severe environmental problems yield challenges in its further development. To mitigate the climate impact of civil aviation, the Advisory Council for Aeronautics Research in Europe ...
