Cover Story: Boundary layer ingestion (BLI) is a future aircraft technology that can offer a step reduction in fuel burn by ingesting the airframe boundary layer. This paper presents the aerodynamics and performance of a novel aircraft concept that features multiple BLI propulsors distributed around the aft fuselage. It represents the first application of the power balance method to unsteady computational results of a full-annulus BLI fan system combined with intake, the exhaust system, and upstream fuselage. By drawing up a mechanical power balance, the local flow features that contribute to mechanical power losses were identified. This should be of interest to fan and installation engineers and researchers involved in the design of highly integrated future propulsion systems. View this paper
