摘要

航空界正在努力发展新型绿色航空。减少温室气体排放和噪音是未来航空业的关键要求。航空界正在努力解决这个问题，一个令人信服的替代方案可能是电力推进。这项工作旨在展示THEA-CODE，一个用于混合动力飞机概念设计的工具。该工具评估了电力推进系统在燃料燃烧、直接和间接二氧化碳排放方面的潜在优势。tea - code不仅适用于传统的“翼管”结构，也适用于非传统的结构，如箱翼。结果表明，采用能量密度高于当前技术水平的电池，燃料燃烧显著减少。给出了一个寻找潜在的最佳折衷配置的过程。

THEA-CODE: a design tool for the conceptual design of hybrid-electric aircraft with conventional or unconventional airframe configurations

The aviation world is dealing with the development of new and greener aviation. The need for reducing greenhouse gas emission as well as the noise is a critical requirement for the aviation of the future. The aviation world is struggling with it, and a compelling alternative can be the electric propulsion. This work aims to present THEA-CODE, a tool for the conceptual design of hybrid-electric aircraft. The tool evaluates the potential benefits of the electric propulsion in terms of fuel burnt and direct and indirect CO2 emissions. THEA-CODE is suitable not only for conventional “wing-tube” configurations but also for unconventional ones, such as the box-wing. The results show a significant reduction of fuel burnt adopting batteries with energy density higher than the current state of the art. A procedure to find the potential best compromise configurations is presented as well.

期刊介绍： An International Journal on Mechanical Sciences and Engineering Applications With papers from industry, Research and Development departments and academic institutions, this journal acts as an interface between research and industry, coordinating and disseminating scientific and technical mechanical research in relation to industrial activities. Targeted readers are technicians, engineers, executives, researchers, and teachers who are working in industrial companies as managers or in Research and Development departments, technical centres, laboratories, universities, technical and engineering schools. The journal is an AFM (Association Française de Mécanique) publication.
