Advance Nacelle Aerodynamic Optimisation

Design & develop innovative ' short ' and ' slimline ' nacelle fan cowls, optimised using the latest numerical analysis techniques to explore new areas of the design space, with the goal of maximising aerodynamic performance for the UltraFan® engine. Verify the optimisation by testing several designs, both at design point and ' off-design ' ( Mn range 0.3 to 0.9 ), employing advanced aerodynamic measurement techniques to provide data from which the design methods can be validated.
