“…Propulsion system modeling was performed using NPSS (Numerical Propulsion System Simulation) [9][10][11] for cycle analysis and performance and WATE (Weight Analysis of Turbine Engines) [12][13][14] for aeromechanical design and weight estimates. Estimates for NO X emission indices were obtained from an empirical correlation representing an advanced, low NO X combustor.…”

“…An engine simulation using a model composed of high-fidelity components would provide detailed knowledge of the interaction effects between its components. Although these interactions can be critical to engine performance, they are not currently quantifiable by engine designers and therefore are unknown until after expensive hardware testing [Claus et al 1991;Hall et al 1998]. Evaluation of these effects will allow engine designers to make better design decisions earlier in the design process, before the principle design features have been frozen.…”

Designing and developing new aircraft systems is time-consuming and expensive. Computational simulation is a promising means for reducing design cycle times, but requires a flexible software environment capable of integrating advanced multidisciplinary and multifidelity analysis methods, dynamically managing data across heterogeneous computing platforms, and distributing computationally complex tasks. Web-based simulation, with its emphasis on collaborative composition of simulation models, distributed heterogeneous execution, and dynamic multimedia documentation, has the potential to meet these requirements. This paper outlines the current aircraft design process, highlighting its problems and complexities, and presents our vision of an aircraft design process using Web-based modeling and simulation.
