• BWB design is subject to high uncertainties since today’s standard design methods are directly applicable only to tube-and-wing aircraft configurations. Consequently, high investments need to be made in new design methods and tools as well as in investigating handling qualities, which is crucial to reduce uncertainties. Further research is also important to get a clear identification of overall benefits. • The aerodynamic shape of BWBs is more complex than that of a tube and wing configuration, thus it is challenging to design modular aircraft family concepts for fuselage and equipment systems. As a result, the development of a family concept for BWBs requires a completely new design for each family member. • The payload-weight distribution and loading procedures of the BWB design presents certain operational challenges when it comes to the Electric aircraft (hybrid and battery) accessibility of ground services and maintenance for airports and airlines. This issue is expected to be less severe for small BWBs such as the DZYNE design. • Large multi-aisle cabin spaces inside the BWB imply the need of new operational processes and procedures that must be defined to comply with cabin safety requirements including evacuation. Recommendations for Seamless Market Penetration • Focus research and technology activities on the reduction of uncertainties in the aircraft design procedure for BWBs and other non-tube-and-wing configurations by expanding design capabilities. • Strengthen concepts and strategies for production, assembly, supply and logistics of heavy and complex structures. Benefits Challenges Environment Energy efficiency Low noise No pollutant emissions from electric propulsion Ground operations and infrastructure Electricity supply at airports (installation and commercial arrangements) Battery recharging and storage facilities Flight performance Battery energy/power capacity and performance are critical Maintenance Less frequent and costly for electric motors than for combustion engines Industrial Synergies with automotive sector Scalability starting from already existing very small aircraft Certification New certification processes Battery safety • Successful market introduction of electric aircraft requires sufficient battery performance for the intended propulsion concept (hybrid or full-battery) and payload-range combination. • For the implementation of a large fleet of commercial electric aircraft, reliable supply concepts for the increasing electric power demand at airports are necessary. In that case, electricity companies could become new industry stakeholders by introducing new market concepts and energy supply chains. • The standardization of batteries (in terms of size, shape, voltage, connectors etc.) to be used as a propulsive energy source allows quick battery exchange during aircraft turnaround at airports and the maximization of economies of scale for battery production and availability. • Full-battery electric aircraft do not generate any exhaust emissions, those of hybrid aircraft are significantly lower than for those with combustion engines. This is a considerable benefit for the local air quality around airports. According to current scientific understanding, both NOx emissions and contrails, whose formation is enhanced by particulate matter emissions, contribute to net global warming. This would mean an additional climate benefit thanks to the reduced exhaust emissions. • Hybrid and, even more, full battery-electric aircraft are considerably quieter than turbofan-powered ones. They could use noise-restricted city airports and thus benefit from additional airport slots. 33
