Project description DEENESFRITPL New propulsion technology making future flights more sustainable The EU-funded MYTHOS project aims to develop aircraft engines that can make flexible use of various sustainably produced fuels, including pure hydrogen. Researchers will demonstrate a breakthrough design methodology for future short- and medium-range civil-aircraft engines using a wide range of liquid and gaseous fuels. Machine learning methods will be used to develop a multidisciplinary modelling approach to characterising the related engine components. A unique aspect of the project is the realistic experimental validation of the numerical approaches. With this approach, the MYTHOS consortium will help shorten the time-to-market for engines suitable for various environmentally friendly fuels. Show the project objective Hide the project objective Objective MYTHOS proposes to develop a demonstrated innovative and disruptive design methodology for future short/medium range civil engines capable of using a wide range of liquid and gaseous fuels including SAFs and, ultimately, pure hydrogen, thus aiming at fulfilling the objective of decarbonize civil aviation as fore-seen by the ACARE SRIA short, mid and long-term Goals by 2050. To achieve these, the MYTHOS consor-tium develops and adopts a multidisciplinary multi-fidelity modelling approach for the characterization of the relevant engine components deploying the full power of the method of machine learning. The latter will lead through hidden-physics discovery to advance data-driven reduced models which will be embedded in a holistic tool for the prediction of the environmental footprint of the civil aviation of all speeds. A unique aspect of the project is the high-fidelity experimental validation of the numerical approaches. MYTHOS consortium through this approach will contribute to reduce time-to-market for engines designed and engi-neered to burn various types of environmentally friendly fuels, such as SAF, in the short and medium term, and hydrogen, in the long term.
