| AERO0023-1 | Aircraft design
|
|
| Duration : | 30h Th, 30h Pr |
|
| Number of credits : |
|
|
| Lecturer : | Grigorios Dimitriadis, Ludovic Noels |
|
Language(s) of instruction :
|
| French language |
|
Organisation and examination :
|
| All year long |
|
Course contents :
|
| During these classes, the students will learn about the integrated design of an aircraft. Indeed, each technical field is seen as a sub-system interacting with the others.
Therefore, the organisation is as follows. An introductive talk describes, through history, these interactions, and a concluding talk will introduce the project of designing an aircraft.
Between these two classes, professors will introduce the concepts of
- Aerodynamics
- Structures
- Propulsion (flow and mechanical design)
- Performances
- Stability
- Aeroelasticity
|
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| A the end of the class the student will have acquired the methodology to conduct a conceptual design in aeronautics. In particular he will be able to achieve the conceptual design of a jetline. |
|
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
|
| Basic knowledge in
- Solid mechanics
- Fluid mechanics
|
|
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
|
| Industrial partners are invited to give lectures during which they illustrate the theoretical concepts with realizations of aeronautic companies. |
|
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
|
| Face to face |
|

Assessment methods and criteria :
|
| The evaluation is based on a project, which consists in the pre design of a turbojet. This project will be presented in front of the professors and the classmates.
Participation to the talks of the invited lecturers and to the project presentations is mandatory. |
