A panel of experts reviews developments in industry efforts toward sustainable aviation and the digital twin technology enabling progress. Topics include propulsion electrification, alternative fuels and new aerodynamic configurations and structural architectures. Watch now to see how it is possible to empower your sustainable aviation efforts with digital twins.
To reach net-zero emissions by 2050, the aviation sector must rapidly accomplish a complete technology transformation.
Moreover, this schedule tightens even more, considering the radical changes in aircraft architectures and technologies required to reach commercial maturity: new fuels, fuel systems, power generation, electric systems, propulsion, systems integration, wings, airframe, materials, control systems, new operational concepts and changes in airport infrastructure. The aeronautic industry has not experienced such a change in the last 70 years. Achieving this complex technology development and maturation in such a limited period is a unique challenge in industrial history.
Making aircraft and aviation sustainable is important. Just imagine if you couldn’t fly to visit family, friends or customers in different parts of the world. To avoid this type of a future, green aviation efforts are underway. Electric propulsion aircraft are part of this transformation. Propulsion electrification adds tremendous complexity that can be managed with a digital twin approach to the design of electric propulsion aircraft. Watch to learn about industry developments and available technology making this possible.
Listen to this webinar for an exploration of alternative fuels and the challenges that come with them. The presentation includes a look at the benefits and challenges of sustainable aviation fuels:
It also dives into the technical specifications and implications of hydrogen as gas turbine fuel before exploring detailed design of a hydrogen jet engine.
Sustainable aircraft design is made possible through a digital twin approach to simulate and test designs and reduce costly physical prototypes along the way to engineering success. Find out how Simcenter simulation and testing solutions, part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, can help you address engineering challenges related to electrified propulsion, alternative fuels, new aerodynamic configurations and structural architectures.
In a reality where the complexity of aerospace architecture and systems continuously increases, Simcenter answers tough engineering challenges with its dynamic and integrated model-based engineering approach. Watch the presentation to learn more.
