Abstract:A possible solution to improve the aircraft efficiency for the next decades is the use of boundary-layer ingestion engines. One of the industrial challenges linked to this type of engines is the aerodynamic distortion at engine intake. This work proposes to evaluate the characterization capability of several distortion indices, currently used in the industry, on a boundary layer ingestion engine configuration. The analysis is performed using several Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes simulations. First, steady si… Show more
