MEETING THE CHALLENGES OF THE AERONAUTICAL AND SPACE TRANSITION

Crossing the Atlantic by plane or sending a human to the Moon: for a century, aerospace research has constantly shown its ability to do things that many people thought impossible. The ecological transition challenge involves comparable ambitions: we are mobilizing to take it up and to meet the environmental and social challenges facing us.

ISAAR CHAIR: SPOTLIGHT ON THE GYPAETUS RESEARCH PROJECT

As part of the work sponsored by the ISAAR Chair “Innovation Solutions for CS-23 Aircraft Architecture and Regulation”, with support from Daher, 8 international students from the Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering program at ISAE-SUPAERO are working on the GYPAETUS research project for the design of an airplane with very low CO2 emissions during flight.

PROJECT FOR AN UNMANNED AIRPLANE WITH ZERO EMISSIONS TO CROSS THE SOUTH ATLANTIC

The Mermoz Drone project, initiated by a team of researchers at ISAE-SUPAERO’s aerodynamics laboratory, has the ambition to participate in the development of breakthrough technologies for electric aviation. Crossing the South Atlantic with an unmanned aircraft with an approximately 4-meter wingspan using hydrogen propulsion would be a first step toward the development of larger low-carbon airplanes for air transport.

ASSESSING AVIATION’S CLIMATE IMPACT WITH AN OPEN-ACCESS APPLICATION

CAST_2021_2
L’outil de simulation CAST

CAST is an innovative application developed by ISAE-SUPAERO that measures an airplane’s climate impact by taking into account all the phases of its life cycle. Thomas Planès, a post-graduate at the Department of Aerospace Vehicle Design and Control (DCAS), has developed a modelling tool in the form of a web app that is accessible to everyone.

IMOTHEP PROJECT

The IMOTHEP project (Investigation and Maturation of Technologies for Hybrid Electric Propulsion), financed by the European Commission under Horizon 2020, was officially launched in Brussels on January 20th, 2020. ISAE-SUPAERO is one of the 33 industrial and academic partners in the IMOTHEP consortium, headed by ONERA and whose purpose is to assess the potential of hybrid electric propulsion to reduce emissions from commercial aviation and to establish the European technological road map for its development. Our researchers at the Department of Aerodynamics, Energetics and Propulsion (DAEP) will take part in this project and will contribute to its work on aeropropulsive integration, notably modelling powertrains and designing air intakes for breakthrough configurations.
