Performance And Emissions Study Of N+3 And N+4 Engine Models With Several Fuel Types Using Npss, Abel Solomon
McKelvey School of Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The aviation industry is known to be one of the major contributors to greenhouse gases accounting for 4.9% of the global greenhouse emissions. With the ever-increasing threat of climate change to the overall survival of the planet, the exploration of new technologies and alternative energy sources that minimize greenhouse gas emissions are of paramount importance. In this regard, the development of propulsion systems well suited for the performance and emissions requirements of future commercial aircraft plays a crucial role. This thesis investigates N+3 and N+4 technology-level propulsion systems that are proposed by NASA as possible propulsion systems for advanced single-aisle …
