Research Fellow in Climate-Optimised Aircraft Design

Aircraft contrails and contrail cirrus account for more than half of the climate forcing from aircraft operations to date. Radically different airframe and propulsion concepts have been developed as a means to reduce CO2 emission, but the impact of the airframe and propulsion design on contrail formation has not been part of the design process.In this...

Supervisory Team: Edward Richardson; Ali ElhamProject descriptionThe condensation trail (contrail) emissions of future low-CO2 aircraft will be assessed as part of a climate-optimised aircraft design methodology.
