Green aviation is about improving aircraft fuel efficiency, developing the next generation of efficient air traffic control, and developing new systems engineering technologies and processes to achieve carbon-neutral air transportation.
Global aviation company Bombardier focuses on the design, manufacture and maintenance of the world's rarest commercial aircraft.
Bombardier has created the EcoJet research project to develop and mature powerful technologies to leverage in future projects as part of its strong commitment to a sustainable future for commercial aviation .
After many years of research, the company successfully completed its first phase of testing with a small-scale model of a fuselage combined with wings aircraft, which represents approximately % of a large busi C Level Executive List ness aircraft.
This research and technology, through a combination of aerodynamic and propulsion improvements, the project aims to reduce aircraft emissions by up to %.
The Bombardier team has reported positive results during the design optimization cycle and initial flight test campaign of a small-scale model of a combined fuselage aircraft. It includes the deployment of a next-generation product lifecycle management (PLM) platform, confirmation of a sixth-generation transonic wing modeling capability, and demonstration of a new aircraft control architecture.
“Bombardier has taken a leading position in the industry's efforts to reduce its environmental footprint, and the EcoJet research project is fundamental to developing the technologies that will take us towards the goal of net zero emissions by ,” said Stephen McCullough, senior vice president of Engineering and Product Development.
“We are very pleased to see the highly interesting results obtained so far and to continue our pioneering work as we begin the next phase of this game-changing research project. “The EcoJet research project has garnered a high level of interest across the industry and we look forward to mobilizing partners as we continue to define the future of commercial aviation.”
The company is now building on the important knowledge gained to participate in the second phase of testing with a model twice as large and which completed its first flight last year to pave the way for the next test campaign.
Not only will this research help reduce pollution, but Ecojet's research will also pave the way for a greener future. The integration of this technology with large commercial and business aircraft will be of great help to the aviation industry.
