In modern turbofan engines, the bypass section of the fan stage alone provides the majority of the total thrust required in cruise, and the size of the fan has a considerable effect on the overall engine weight and nacelle drag. Thrust requirements in di...

The inflow distortion to the fan introduced by the ingestion of the fuselage boundary layer is the most critical challenge in realizing the benefits of boundary later ingesting (BLI) concepts. Minimizing the level of distortion while maintaining the desi...

One of the most difficult steps in estimating the cruise performance characteristics of high-subsonic transport-category turbofan-powered airplanes is the estimation of the transonic wave drag. Modern jet airplanes cruise most efficiently in the vicinity...
