| TMAL51 | Conceptual Aircraft Design, 6 ECTS credits. /Flygplansprojektering/ |
||
Prel. scheduled
hours: 64 |
|||
|
Area of Education: Technlogy Subject area: Mechanical Engineering |
|||
| Advancement level
(A-D): D
|
|||
| Aim: To allow students to bring together their previous studies in aeronautics to a practical aircraft design project and in so doing develop the understanding of the disciplines and interrelationships in aircraft design. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) TMAL02 Aircraft and Vehicle Design, TMMV01 Aerodynamics, TMME50 Flight Mechanics Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Supplementary courses: TMAL55 Aircraft Design Project |
|||
| Organisation: Instruction is carried out in the form of lectures, classes and a major project, made by the help of an in-house produced design program |
|||
| Course contents: This course will utilise the skills learnt in previous aeronautical courses to undertake the conceptual design of an aircraft. Scope of the course: - The design process - Aircraft configurations, conventional as well as unconventional - Safety and safety requirements - How to do fuselage-, wing- and stabiliser layouts - Weight and balance - Powerplant and installation - Landing gear design and installation - Introducing the design program, how it´s built up and functions |
