- W3095074881 abstract "At present, a priority for the aviation industry is to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions from air transport. Oneof the axes to reduce aviation emission is the development of novel technologies for aircraft systems.The presented research contributes to the development of a photovoltaic (PV) system for aircraftthat converts the available solar energy into electrical energy without producing emissions. Today,there is limited research made to implement photovoltaics in the commercial aviation industry. Thisthesis develops an analysis capability for the conceptual design of aircraft featuring a PV system.Three research questions are addressed: (1) which are the best aircraft surfaces for the installation ofsolar panels? (2) which aircraft configurations suit best the implementation of a PV system?and (3) how much power yield is achievable, considering geometrical constraints and shading oncomplex surfaces? The methodology consists of three steps. First, a parametric model is developedto estimate usable surfaces on aircraft wing, tail and fuselage to install PV panels, using empiricalaircraft geometry analysis, including design constraints such as control surfaces, windows, wingposition and other. Secondly, a commercial software tool Ecotect® is used to analyze the shadingon complex surfaces. The resulting data is used to obtain a more realistic power yield estimation ofPV panels and to develop additional guidelines for the optimal placement of PV panels on aircraftsurfaces. In a third step, the available solar radiation for various categories of aircraft is determined,leading to the identification of most promising aircraft types for PV panel installation. Finally, acase study is performed to evaluate the potential fuel savings for an aircraft equipped with a PVpanel system within a Multidisciplinary Aircraft Design (MAD) environment. The results showthat regional aircraft, medium-sized business jets, and general aviation aircraft are the most suitableplatforms for the implementation of PV system. The study concludes that the use of a PV system as asupplemental power source to the aircraft systems can have viable results from the standpoint of fuelsavings and operational costs. The developed parametric photovoltaic system sizing tool providesinsight to solar panel manufacturers and the aviation industry for how to bring the innovative conceptto an application and to support future, sustainable aviation." @default.
