A study was conducted to demonstrate an approach to sizing of a fully integrated hypersonic commercial airliner, which was based on the parametric sizing methodology. It consisted of defining a set of equations that relates mission requirements to geometry, aerodynamic, and propulsion efficiencies, which were solved simultaneously. The next step involved identifying the final configuration of a wholly integrated hypersonic vehicle with trimming, control surfaces, and an integrated propulsion system. Vehicle weights, along with volumes and aerodynamic efficiencies were iterated until all weights converge and the thrust required to climb and cruise was met by engines specification.

Abstract
A study was conducted to demonstrate an approach to sizing of a fully integrated hypersonic commercial airliner, which was based on the parametric sizing methodology. It consisted of defining a set of equations that relates mission requirements to geometry, aerodynamic, and propulsion efficiencies, which were solved simultaneously. The next step involved identifying the final configuration of a wholly integrated hypersonic vehicle with trimming, control surfaces, and an integrated propulsion system. Vehicle weights, along with volumes and aerodynamic efficiencies were iterated until all weights converge and the thrust required to climb and cruise was met by engines specification.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
