Contributor Van Buijtenen, J.P. (promotor) Faculty Mechanical Maritime and Materials Engineering Date 2008-09-30 Abstract In the thesis, generic methods have been developed for aero-engine combustor performance, combustion chemistry, as well as airplane aerodynamics, airplane and engine performance. These methods specifically aim to support diverse emission prediction studies coupled with airplane and engine simulation. Models for the engine exhaust composition can be either selected from existing methods or composed from the algorithms for combustor performance and combustion chemistry produced in the thesis. The best application of this work is analysis of exhaust emissions under varying operating conditions representative of current civil transport airplanes powered by turbofan engines - the main body of today's air transport. Various objectives can be pursued in such analysis: Emission footprints of both single airplane operating phases and complete missions can be investigated. The analysis may lead to comparison and optimization of operating practices from the viewpoint of emission production. This all may help better quantify the environmental impact of existing air transport technology, as well as develop and evaluate operational emission mitigation measures. Practices which conflict with the minimization of environmental impact can be articulated.
