Report on design of reference vehicles

Summary
T31 Design of reference vehicles M16Conceptual design of reference vehicles on the basis of the TLAR defined in T21 and the identified KPIs in T23 TUDFPP will perform the design and analysis of the reference aircraft using its conceptual aircraft design software Aircraft Design Initiator This design will cover typical Class1 Class2 and Class25 design methods for wingpowerloading diagrams constraint analysis including aeropropulsive interaction effects weight estimation finiteelement based beam method of fuselage and lifting surfaces aerodynamics vortex lattice semiempirical corrections for nonlift induced effects empty weight estimation of nonstructural components and mission analysis This software generates converged designs including discipline interactions however does not try to optimize the aircraft for the specified top level requirements Review will be performed together with TUBS The initial hypothesis for TLAR in D21 will be based on current classleading representative aircraft for each of the five vehicle classes Examples of these include Tecnam P2010 or Pipistrell Panthera GA King Air P180 Avanti Citation or EMB Legacy commuter ATR42ATR72 regional A320A321Neo narrow body A350 wide body Especially for the smaller categories GAcommuter the selection of reference aircraft will be critical and may result in more than 5 reference aircraft in total to cover the broadness of these classes Designs of reference vehicles will be compared to the data found in open literature for validation purposes Responsible TUD review contribution TUBS
