Verification and Validation of Propulsion Systems for Next-Generation Eco-friendly Supersonic Passenger Aircraft
摘要
With the resurgence of supersonic passenger aircraft in aviation, the imperative for environmental sustainability has become increasingly critical. This study proposes a hydrogen-fueled distributed turbogenerator-electric propulsion system for next-generation environmentally sustainable supersonic airliners. A zero-dimensional component-level simulation model was developed using the Matlab/Simulink environment, integrating an object-oriented programming approach with S-function modules. Computational analyses validated the system’s operational feasibility and safety compliance. The proposed system achieves zero carbon emissions while fulfilling the transoceanic and supersonic operational requirements of a 10-seat business jet, thereby addressing both performance and environmental sustainability objectives.
