COMMUTER AIRCRAFT DESIGN
Abstract
The report presents the initial design of 15 passenger seat aircraft. The paper aims
to give guidelines on conception of general commuter aircraft. Aircraft
configurations and aerodynamic design choices are shown and compared with
other types. Investigation on wing-fuselage effect and nacelle lift influence on the
effect of wing span loading. Aerodynamic analysis done results to accurate
estimation of control derivatives, aircraft stability and accurate sizing of tail
surface. The analysis was carried out by use of 3-D calculation panel code
supported by a semi-empirical estimation method. The aircraft design can allow
along range transport with a reduced fuel consumption rate, better efficiency and
outstanding noise levels to design features and art engine.
Introduction
Latest aircraft are made of combination of advanced engineering system, light
weight and durable structures and high performance aerodynamics. The
passengers on air demands a more comfortable and friendly environment.
Technical challenges requires to be balanced so that the aircraft design
specification are economically achieved. The design is laborious and complex
activity as it involves a numerous factors to consider and their details required to
obtain optimum finished product. The process of design starts from scratch and
