Introduction
Design of an airplane:
Airplane design is both an art and a science. It’s the intellectual engineering process of
creating on paper (or on a computer screen) a flying machine to meet certain specifications
and requirements established by potential users (or as perceived by the manufacturer) and
pioneer innovative, new ideas and technology.
The design process is indeed an intellectual activity that is rather specified one that is
tempered by good intuition developed via by attention paid to successful airplane designs that
have been used in the past, and by (generally proprietary) design procedure and databases
(hand books etc…) that are a part of every airplane manufacturer.
Phases of airplane design:
The complete design process has gone through three distinct phases that are carried out in
sequence. They are
Conceptual design
Preliminary design

1. Selection of Aircraft and Its Parameter
Aim To select an aircraft from Jane’s All the Worlds Aircraft book of given type and to
select the parameters of the selected aircraft.
Theory The design of an aircraft draws on a number of basic areas of aerospace engineering.
These include aerodynamics, propulsion, light-weight structures, and control.
Each of these areas involves parameters that govern the size, shape, weight, and performance
of an aircraft. There are many performance aspects that can be specified by the mission
requirements. These include, • The aircraft purpose or mission profile; • The type(s) and
amount of payload; • The cruise and maximum speeds; • The normal cruise altitude; The
range or radius with normal payload; • The endurance; the purchase cost; and • The take-off
distance at the maximum weight;
The process of design of the device or a vehicle in general involves the use of knowledge in
device field to arrive at a produce that will satisfy requirements regarding functional aspects,
operational safety and cost. The design of an airplane, which is being dealt in this course,
involves synthesizing knowledge in areas like aerodynamics, structures, propulsion, systems
and manufacturing techniques. The aim is to arrive at the configuration of an airplane, which
will satisfy aforesaid requirements. • Obtaining the specification of the airplane, selecting the
type and determining
7
• Selection of the power plant
• Fabrication of prototype
1.2.1. Civil
The civil airplanes are categorized as passenger, cargo, agricultural, sports & ambulance.
1.2.2. Military
The military airplanes are categorized as fighter, bomber, interceptor, reconnaissance, and
airplanes for logistic support like troop-carriers and rescue airplane. The military aircraft are
often designed to cater to more the one role.
Early airplane had two or more airplanes had two wings braced with wires. Presently only
single wing is used. These airplanes are called monoplane. When the wing is supported by
struts the airplane is called semi-cantilever monoplane. Depending on the location of the
wing on the fuselage, the airplane is called high wing, mid wing and low wing configuration.
Further, if the wing has no sweep the configuration is called straight wing monoplane. The
swept wing and delta wing configuration.

1.4. Aircraft Purpose
The starting point for the design of any new aircraft is to clearly identify its purpose. It is
generally categories into
• Combat aircraft,
• Passenger or
• Cargo transports, and
• General aviation aircraft.
These may also be further refined into subcategories based on particular design objectives
such as range (short or long), take-off or landing distances, maximum speed, etc. The process
of categorizing is useful in identifying any existing aircraft that might be used in making
comparisons to a proposed design.
Payload
The payload is what is carried on board and delivered as part of the aircraft’s mission.
Standard payloads are passengers, cargo, or ordnance. The first 2 are considered as
nonexpendable payload because they are expected to be transported for the complete duration
of the flight plan.
The mission of an aircraft usually dictates its speed range. Propeller-driven aircraft are
usually designed to cruise at speed between 150 to 300 knots. Jet powered aircraft have
higher cruise speeds that are normally specified in terms of Mach number. The typical Mach
number for business and commercial jet aircraft is from 0.8 to 0.85.
10
The cruise altitude is generally dictated by the cruise speed, propulsion system, and cabin
pressurization. An aircraft with an unpressurized cabin would cruise no higher than 10000
feet. With propeller-driven aircraft, turbo-charged piston engines can maintain a constant
horsepower up to an altitude of approximately 20000 feet. Higher altitudes are possible with
turboprop aircraft, such as the Piper Cheyenne, which have a maximum ceiling from 35000 to
41000.
The decrease in air density with altitude lowers the drag, so that for these aircraft the cruise
range increase with altitude.
Range
The range is the furthest distance the aircraft can fly without refueling. In a flight plan range
refers to the distance traveled during the cruise phase.
The choice of the range is one of the most important decision because it has a large effect on
the aircraft take-off weight.

2. COMPARITIVE STUDY
Aim
To make a comparative study of Aircrafts having the specification and functional similarities
for their purpose of operation.
Introduction
For choosing an aircraft for our particular usage, we should be aware of the basic qualities of
the aircraft. We should compare the existing aircrafts for getting our desired one. First upon
we should be analyses the basic requirements of the aircraft, like type of aircraft (passenger,
fighter, bomber, cargo flight, etc.) then we should go for the cruise speed & cruise altitude.
Then the other requirements like payload, range, endurance, take off-landing distance etc.
Then we should search for the existing flights having any of the same qualities and compare
two or three flights having the required qualities.
After finding the existing flight then go for comparing the parameters whatever they have and
our required one. Then calculate the dimensions of the flight whatever we have desired and
chose the weight, thrust and other factors required for our desired one.
2.1.1. Cruise mach no: It is the cruise speed at which the aircraft should fly. Generally the
speed of the aircraft is mentioned in the Mach no. It is the ratio of the speed of object with the
local speed of sound.
2.1.2. Weight: Weight of the Aircraft is affected by so many things. They are the Empty
structural weight, Fuel weight, Payload etc. Each aircraft have its own capacity that can carry
the weight at maximum efficiently at the desired altitude.
2.1.3. Cruise altitude: When height increases the specific fuel consumption of the aircraft
decreases, so the fuel can be reserved in the aircraft, while the aircraft is designed to working
at a particular altitude from the standard sea level. So the international atmospheric
parameters will vary with change in altitude.
13
Table 2.1.Cruise altitude
2.1.4. Range: It is the maximum distance that can be achieved by the aircraft. In this the
transport and passenger aircraft mentioned the range and the fighter, bomber and other type
of military aircrafts are mentioned as operating radius. In this the range is depend upon the
type of aircraft.

4. WEIGHT ESTIMATION OF THE AIRCRAFT
Aim
To estimate the weight of the 11 seated Business jet during its important phases like takeoff,
cruise, climb, loiter, landing.
4.1 Theory
“Design takeoff gross weight” is the total weight of the aircraft as it begins the mission for which
it was designed. This is not necessarily the same as the “maximum takeoff weight.” Many
military aircraft can be overloaded beyond design weight but will suffer a reduced
maneuverability. Unless specifically mentioned, takeoff gross weight.
The first step in the design of a new aircraft is to obtain an estimation of weight of the aircraft
during its important phases. This estimation is one of the most crucial, since it is used in many
other parts of the design.
The total take-off weight is divided into fuel weight, payload weight, and empty or structure
weight
The payload is further divided into nonexpendable and expandable type. The nonexpendable
payload remains unchanged throughout the flight plan. Expendable payload is dropped
somewhere in the flight plan. The total payload weight is, therefore,
27
In Eq. (4.1), W0 is the important quantity for which we want a first estimate;
W0 is the desired result from graph.
To help make this estimate, Eq. (4.1) can be rearranged as follows. If we denote Wfuel by Wf and
Wempty by We (for notational simplicity), Eq. (4.1) can be written as
W0 = Wcrew + Wpayload + Wf + We [4.2]
W0=Wcrew+Wpayload+ W0+ W0 [4.3]
Solving Eq. (4.3) for W0, we have
W0 = {(����� +��������)/ [1−( ����� /�0 )–( ������ /�0 )]} [4.4]
Where, ��/ �0 - Fuel weight fraction & ��/ �0 - Empty weight fraction
4.2 ESTIMATION OF We /W0:
In the plot of We /W0 vs. W0 for the aircrafts shown in the comparative data sheet the values of
We /W0 tend to cluster around a horizontal line at We /W0
Plot graph between We /W0 Vs W0
28
Wf = W0-W5
Wf / W0 = 1- (�5/�0)
��/�0 can be obtained from the product of mission segment weight at the end of the segment
divided by the weight at the beginning of segment.
From Mission Profile of an Aircraft the fuel fraction for an entire mission is
�5/�0 = �1/�0 x �2/ �1 x �3/ �2 x �4 /�3 x �5 /�4 [4.5]
29
For loiter, segment 3-4 ignoring the fuel consumption during descent we assume,
�4/�3 = 0.990
For landing, segment 4-5 based on historical data we assume that,
�5 /�4 = 0.992
4.3.2 To calculate unknown value, W3/W2
The Brequet’s range equation is used to calculate the value of W3/W2 . As we all know that
maximum range is covered during cruise we considering this equation,
R = (�∞/��)*(�/�)*ln(�2/�3) [4.6]
30
Parameter Values for Design
�∞ 950
�� 0.5
�/� 12
R 12000 Km
Table 4.4 Parameters for calculations
So now substituting these values in the Brequet’s range equation,
�2/�3 = 1.648
�3/ �2 = 0.606
Now using all the fuel fractions, sub in equation 4.5
�5/�0 = �1/�0 x �2/ �1 x �3/ �2 x �4 /�3 x �5 /�4
�5/�0 =0.5803
Wf = W0-W5
Wf / W0 = 1- (�5/�0)
If at end of the flight, the fuel tanks are not completely empty, making six percent of allowance
for reserve and trapped fuel,
Wf / W0 = 1.06 x {1- (�5/�0)}
Wf / W0 = 0.44
4.4 Estimation of Wcrew & Wpayload
Corning suggests the average passenger weight of 100kg with baggage per passenger. For our
aircraft, there are 11 passengers, two stewards and two pilots, 15 people in total. Let us assume
the average weight per person is 80.
Hence, since the 2 crew is the pilots and stewards, we assume
Wcrew = 4×100= 400 kg
The payload is the 15 passenger, plus the baggage for all 15 people. The type of short business
trip for which this aircraft will most likely be used would require less baggage than a longer,
intercontinental trip.
Thus, including the pilot’s baggage, we have
Wpayload = 15*100 = 1500 Kg
4.5 Estimation of W0
31
Return to Eq. (4.4) for the design takeoff gross weight W0. We have obtained a value for We/W0
through graph 4.1. We have also obtained a value for Wf/W0 in section 4.3. The values for the
crew and payload weights were obtained in section 4.4.
All we need to obtain W0 from Eq. (4.4)
W0 = {(����� +��������)/ [1−( ����� /�0 )–( ������ /�0 )]} [4.4]
W0 = 42851.03 kN
This is only the first estimation
Now by doing iterations, we can get a fairly accurate value of the Maximum Take Off Weight
(W0).
4.6 ITERATION PROCESS (W0)
For the iteration process, we use the given formula,
32
We from graph value (ie)., We /�0 = graph value and Sub W0 =42857.04 kg find We
We = 23,048.56 Sub We in 4.7 and W0 =42857.04kg (value from previous iteration ) in [4.7]
W0 =42851.03 Kg
Iteration 6
We from graph value (ie)., We /�0 = graph value and Sub W0 =42857.04 kg find We
We = 23,048.56 Sub We in 4.7 and W0 =42851.03kg (value from previous iteration ) in [4.7]
W0 =42851.03 Kg
Iteration 7
We from graph value (ie)., We /�0 = graph value and Sub W0 =42857.04 kg find We
We = 23,048.56 Sub We in 4.7 and W0 =42851.03kg (value from previous iteration ) in [4.7]
W0 =42851.03 Kg
After doing seven iterations, we can see that the value of We Wo starts to converge on 0.524 So
we can take the value W0 = 42851.03 as the final estimate of the W
Max Take Off Weight (W0) =42851.03 kg.
4.7 Estimation of Weight of the fuel
From section 4.3 We know that,
�� /�0 =0.442
So, substituting the value of W0 from section 4.6, we get the first estimation value of Wf ,
�� = 0.442 x �0
33
Wf = 0.442 × 42851.03 = 18940.155 Kg
Weight of the Fuel (Wf)= 18940.155 Kg
Result
Thus a weight estimation of 11 seated Business jet is done and the total weight at take off is
(42851.03Kg) & Fuel weight is ( 18940.155 Kg)
34
5. POWER PLANT SELECTION
Aim
To choose appropriate power plant for “11 seated Business jet” Aircraft.
5.1 Theory
From the first weight estimate, we can have rough idea of the weight of the power plant that is to
be used.
The literature survey indicated a thrust to weight ratio of 0.25 was appropriate.
The choice of engine is a turbofan for the following reasons such as:
Most of the aircraft in the business category were found to have 2 engines & hence the
preference is towards having twin engines
35
purchase.
There are several available engines that would suit our requirement. All of them are
currently used on civil aircraft operations therefore considerable experience is available.
The engines below are typical options

6. FUEL WEIGHT VALIDATION
Aim
To validate the fuel weight that is obtained from previous experiment.
6.1 Theory
The choice of a suitable engine, having been made, it is now possible to estimate the amount of
fuel required for a flight at the given cruising speed for the given range
Wfuel = (Number of engine x Thrust at altitude x Range x SFC x1.2)/Cruise Velocity
*1.2 is for reserved fuel
Number of Engine : (2)
Range : (1800)
SFC: (0.5)
Result:
The fuel weight of designed aircraft is 18932.36Kg
39
7. WING DESIGN
Aim
To obtain wing design for “ 11 Seated Business jet Aircraft”.
7.1 Theory
After the final weight estimation of the aircraft, the primary component of the aircraft to
be designed is the wing. The wing may be considered as the most important component of an
aircraft, since a fixed-wing aircraft is not able to fly without it. Since the wing geometry and its
features are influencing all other aircraft components, we begin the detail design process by wing
design. The primary function of the wing is to generate sufficient lift force or simply lift (L).
However, the wing has two other productions, namely drag force or drag (D) and nose-
down pitching moment (M). While a wing designer is looking to maximize the lift, the other two
(drag and pitching moment) must be minimized. The wing must produce sufficient lift while
generate minimum drag, and minimum pitching moment. These design goals must be
collectively satisfied throughout all flight operations and missions.
7.2 WING GEOMETRY DESIGN
40
From Raymer book we choose our, Taper Ratio (λ) = 0.6
The root chord is given by,
Root Chord (Cr) = 2S/[b(1+ λ)]
The tip chord is given by
Tip chord (Ct)= λ × Croot
Mean Aerodynamic Chord,
Mean chord= 2/3 x Croot x {(1+ λ+2 λ)/(1+ λ)}
Where,
S = Reference wing area
C = Chord
b = Wing span
λ = Taper ratio
A= Aspect ratio = b2/S
Sweep back angle (Λ) can be obtained approximately using a taper ratio (λ) of 0.6
7.2.1. WING AREA:
Wing Planform area (S) = Weight /Wing loading
W/S = (42851.03/3980.76)
Wing Planform area = 105.6
7.2.2. WING SPAN:
Aspect ratio = (from the graph)
Aspect ratio = b2/S
Span (b) = (Wing planform area × Aspect ratio)0.5
= (8.78*105.6)0.5
=30.31 m

5 Dassault falcon 7X Swept back Low wing Dihedral(1.7)
From the above table the Dihederal angle of different11 seated transport aircraft are range
between 2-50.we take our design consideration
7.3.6 Location of Wing
There are three basic vertical locations of the wing relative to the fuselage:
1. High wing
2. Mid wing
3. Low wing
High wing:
1. Low-slung fuselage – ease to place the fuselage lower to the ground.
2. More stable in lateral and rolling motion.
3. It is a distinct advantage for transport plane since it simplifies the loading and unloading
processes.
Mid wing:
1. Least interference drag.
2. Gives best stability with little dihedral.
Low wing:
1. Landing gear can easily be retracted into the wing box.
2. Added fillet will avoid undesirable aerodynamic interference.
In light of all the above considerations, we choose a low-wing configuration mainly due to
structural and Landing gear considerations.
42
Result:
Thus the Wing configuration for the selected aircraft is obtained
43
8. AIRFOIL SELECTION
Aim
To select Airfoil for “11 Seated Business jet Aircraft”.
8.1 Theory
The airfoil is the main aspect and is the heart of the airplane. The airfoils affects the cruise speed
landing distance and take off, stall speed and handling qualities and aerodynamic efficiency
during the all phases of flight
Aerofoil Selection is based on the factors of Geometry & definitions, design/selection,
families/types, design lift coefficient, thickness/chord ratio, lift
curve slope, characteristic curves.
8.2 AIRFOIL DESIGN
44
NACA 4 digit is introduced during 1930’s.
NACA 5-digit is aimed at pushing position of max camber forwards for increased CL max.
NACA 6-digit is designed for lower drag by increasing region of laminar flow.
Modern it is mainly based upon need for improved aerodynamic characteristics at speeds just
below speed of sound.
NACA 4 Digit
1st digit: maximum camber (as % of chord).
2nd digit (x10): location of maximum camber (as % of chord from leading edge(LE)).
3rd & 4th digits: maximum section thickness (as % of chord).
NACA 5 Digit
1st digit (x0.15): design lift coefficient 2nd & 3rd digits (x0.5): location of maximum camber
(as % of chord from LE).
4th & 5th digits: maximum section thickness (as % of chord).
NACA 6 Digit
1st digit: identifies series type.
2nd digit (x10): location of minimum pressure (as % of chord from leading edge(LE)).
3rd digit: indicates acceptable range of CL above/below design value for satisfactory low drag
performance (as tenths of CL).
4th digit (x0.1): design CL.
5th & 6th digits: maximum section thickness (%c)
The airfoil that is to be used is now selected. As indicated earlier during the calculation of the lift
coefficient value, it becomes necessary to use high speed airfoils,i.e., the 6x series, which have
been designed to suit high subsonic cruise Mach numbers.
8.3 ESTIMATION OF THE CRITICAL PERFORMANCE
PARAMETERS
We now move to pivot point 3, namely, an estimation of critical performance (CL) max, L/D,
W/S, and T/W. These parameters are directed by the requirements; that is, they will be
determined by such aspects as maximum speed, range, and ceiling, rate of climb, stalling speed,
landing gear, and takeoff distance.

Maximum Lift Coefficient
This is the stage in the design process where we make an initial choice for the airfoil shape for
the wing. Historically, general aviation airplanes have employed the NACA four digit, and 6-
series airfoil sections-the laminar-flow series.
L=W=0.5×ρ×V 2stall×S×CL cruise [8.1]
VStall = 0.25 × Vcruise [8.2]

9. FLAP SELECTION
Aim
To select FLAPS for “11 Seated Business jet Aircraft”.
9.1 Theory
During takeoff and landing the airplane's velocity is relatively low. To keep the lift high (to
avoid objects on the ground!), airplane designers try to increase the wing area and change the
airfoil shape by putting some moving parts on the wings' leading and trailing edges. The part on
the leading edge is called a slat, while the part on the trailing edge is called a flap. The flaps and
slats move along metal tracks built into the wings. Moving the flaps aft (toward the tail) and the
slats forward increases the wing area. Pivoting the leading edge of the slat and the trailing edge
of the flap downward increases the effective camber of the airfoil, which increases the lift. In
addition, the large aft projected area of the flap increases the drag of the aircraft. This helps the
airplane slow down for landing.
9.2 Types of Flaps
Krueger flap: hinged flap on the leading edge. Often called a "droop".
Split flap: upper and lower surfaces are separate, the lower surface operates like a plain flap,
but the upper surface stays immobile or moves only slightly.
Gouge flap: a cylindrical or conical aerofoil section which rotates backwards and downwards
about an imaginary axis below the wing, increasing wing area and chord without affecting trim.
Invented by Arthur Gouge for Short Brothers in 1936.
Fowler flap: slides backwards before hinging downwards, thereby increasing both camber and
chord, creating a larger wing surface better tuned for lower speeds. It also provides some slot
effect. The Fowler flap was invented by Harlan D. Fowler .
Fairey-Youngman flap: moves body down before moving aft and rotating. Slotted flap: a
slot (or gap) between the flap and the wing enables high pressure air from below the wing to re-
51
energize the boundary layer over the flap. This helps the airflow to stay attached to the flap,
delaying the stall.
Blown flaps: systems that blow engine air over the upper surface of the flap at certain angles
to improve lift characteristics.

During Take-off Flap deflection up to 200
Δ (CL max ) = 0.5 + 1.008

During Landing Flap deflection up to 500
Δ (CL max ) = 0.9 + 1.008

Result:
Thus the Flaps for the selected aircraft is selected

10. FUSELAGE AND CABIN LAYOUT
Aim
To select Fuselage and cabin layout for “11 seated Business jet Aircraft”.
10.1 Theory
The interiors of business aircraft are laid out more flexibly than are commercial transports.
Interior appointments often cost millions of dollars and can be very luxurious, especially for the
large long range aircraft such as the Gulfstream V or Global Express. Business aircraft based on
commercial transports such as Boeing Business Jet provide even greater possibilities.
55
Functions of fuselage:
provides of volume for payload
provide overall structural integrity
Possible mounting of landing gear and power plant
Once fundamental configuration is establishment, fuselage layout proceeds almost independent
of other design aspects.
Pressurization
If required, it has a major impact upon the overall shape.
Overall effect depends on the level of pressurization.
Low Differential Pressurisation:
Defined as no greater than 0.27 bar (4 psi).
Mainly applicable to fighters where crew are also equipped with pressure suits.
Cockpit pressurisation primarily provides survivable environment in case of suit failure at
high altitude.
Also used on some general aviation aircraft to improve passenger comfort at moderate
altitude.
Pressure compartment has to avoid use of flat surfaces.
Normal (High) Differential Pressurisation:
Usual requirement is for effective altitude to be no more than 11 km (32000 ft) ISA for
passenger transports.
Implied pressure differentials are:
0.37 bar (5.5 psi) for aircraft at 7.6 km (25,000 ft).
0.58 bar (8.5 psi) for aircraft at 13.1 km (43,000 ft).
0.65 bar (9.4 psi) for aircraft at 19.8 km (65,000 ft).
High pressure differential required across most of fuselage for passenger transports so often
over-riding fuselage structural design requirement
10.3 FUSELAGE SIZING:
The required value of Fuselage size is taken from the graph
L FUSELAGE = 29.45m [10.1]
10.3.1 NOSE AND COCKPIT-FRONT FUSELAGE:
56
The layout of the flight deck and specified pilot window geometry is often the starting point of
the overall fuselage layout. For the current design, flight decks of various airplanes are
considered and the value of is found to be 0.03 [10.2]
Lnose/Lfuselage = 0.03
Lnos = 0.03 × 29.45
Lnos = 0.883 m [10.3]
The cockpit length for a 2 member crew is given by RAYMER
57
Fig 10.3 Honeywell's Avionic Suite (Place image of What You Choosed)
10.4 Passenger Cabin Layout
58
of seats abreast and the aisle arrangement. The number of seats across will fix the number of
rows in the cabin and thereby the fuselage length. Design of the cabin cross section is further
complicated by the need to provide different classes like first class, business class, economy
class etc.
10.4.1 CABIN LENGTH
The total number of seats (11) is distributed as 4 seats abreast. Cabin parameters are chosen
based on standards of similar airplanes.
The various parameters chosen are as follows
Seat pitch =0.86m
Seat width =0.93m
Aisle width =0.43m
Seats abreast =2
No. of aisles =1
Hence, the total cabin length will be = seat pitch × rows
=0.86 × 19 + additional space
Total cabin length =m
10.4.5 CABIN DIAMETER:
Using the number of seats abreast, seat width, aisle width we calculate the internal diameter of
the cabin.
dfus (internal) = 3.20 m
According to the standards prescribed by Raymer, chapter 9, the structural thickness is given by
t = 0.02df + 1 inch
= 0.02 × 3.20 + 0.0254
t = 0.0894m
Therefore the external diameter of the fuselage is obtained as
= 3.20 + 0.0894×2
External diameter = 3.378 m
10.5 REAR FUSELAGE:
The rear fuselage profile is chosen to provide a smooth, low drag shape which supports the tail
surfaces. The lower side of the provide adequate clearance for aircraft when rotation during
takeoff. The rear fuselage should also house the auxiliary power unit (APU). Based on data
collected for similar aircraft we choose the ratio Ltail / dfus as 4.
10.5.1 Total fuselage length:
Various parts of the fuselage are indicated below
Cockpit length = 13.68
Cabin length = 16.58
Total = 30.26
59
Result:
The Fuselage and Cabin layout for the selected aircraft is finalized in this section
60
11. TAIL SECTION
Aim
To select Tail section for “11seated Business jet Aircraft”.
11.1 Theory
The type and area of the tail surfaces are important in determining the stability of the airplane. A
conventional tail arrangement is chosen. Some of the important parameters that decide the
aerodynamic characteristics of the tail are area ratio (St/S), tail volume ratio (VH and Vv), tail
arm, tail span etc. All this parameters have to be decided for both the horizontal and vertical tail.
11.2. T-TAIL
A T-tail is an aft tail configuration (see figure. 34) that looks like the letter “T”;which implies the
vertical tail is located on top of the horizontal tail.
The T-tailconfiguration is another aft tail configuration that provides a few advantages,
while it has a few disadvantages. The major advantage of a T-tail configuration is that it is out of
the regions of wing wake, wing downwash, wing vortices, and engine exit flow (i.e. hot and
turbulent high speed gas). This allows the horizontal tail to provide a higher efficiency, and a
61
safer structure. The lower influence from the wing results in a smaller horizontal tail area; and
the lower effect from the engine leads in a less tail vibration and buffet. The less tail vibration
increases the life of the tail with a lower fatigue problem. On the other hand, the disadvantages
that associated with a T-tail are:
1. vertical tail structure,
2. deep stall.
The bending moment created by the horizontal tail must be transferred to the fuselage through
the vertical tail. This structural behavior requires the vertical tail main spar to be stronger; which
cause the vertical tail to get heavier.
Aircraft with T-tail are subject to a dangerous condition known as the deep stall (Ref. 6); which
is a stalled condition at an angle of attack far above the original stall angle.T-tail Aircraft often
suffer a sever pitching moment instability at angles well above the initial stall angle of about 13
degrees, without wing leading edge high lift device, or about 18 degrees, with wing leading edge
high lift device. If the pilot allows the aircraft to enter to this unstable region, it might rapidly
pitch up to a higher angle of about 40 degrees.
11.3. HORIZONTAL & VERTICAL TAIL CALCULATION:
From the data collected on similar transport aircraft, we choose the following values for the tail
parameters
Table 11.1 Parameters for Tail selection
Parameter Horizontal Tail Vertical Tail
Aspect Ratio (St/S) 3.5-4.5 1.5-2.5
Aspect Ratio 3-6 1.5-3.5
Taper Ratio 0.4-0.6 0.1-0.7
11.3.1 TAIL AREA:
The areas of the horizontal and vertical tail (SH and Sv) are calculated as,
SH = 0.40 × 57.16
SH = 22.864 m2
Sv = 0.31× 57.16
SV = 17.72m2
11.3.2 TAIL SPAN:
The span of the horizontal and vertical tail (bh and bv) are given as,
bh = (AhSH)0.5
bv= ((AhSB))0.5
Taking ARH = 5 and ARV = 1.7, we get
bh =35.433m
bv =7.974m
Result:
The Tail section for the11 seated Business jet Aircraf is finalized in this section
62
12. CENTRE OF GRAVITY
Aim
To identify the center of gravity for “11seated Business jet Aircraft”.
12.1 Theory
The center-of-gravity (CG) is the point at which an aircraft would balance if it were possible to
suspend it at that point. It is the mass center of the aircraft, or the theoretical point at which the
entire weight of the aircraft is assumed to be concentrated. Its distance from the reference datum
is determined by dividing the total moment by the total weight of the aircraft. The center-of
gravity point affects the stability of the aircraft. To ensure the aircraft is safe to fly, the center of
gravity must fall within specified limits
63
For the sake of simplicity, centre of gravity calculations are usually performed along only
a single line from the zero point of the reference datum.
Weight is calculated simply by adding up all weight in the aircraft. This weight must be
within the allowable weight limits for the aircraft.
First estimate weight components for which we have some idea of their location of the
engine, the passengers and pilot, and the baggage.
Considering the forces to be acting at middle each part, and hence taking moment about
the nose, we get the centre of gravity.
CG = {(Nose Weight x Nose length) + (Cabin Weight x Cabin length) + (Engine Weight
x Engine length)+ (Wing Weight x Wing length)}/( Nose length+ Cabin length+ Engine length+
Wing length)
CG=14.4 m
12.2 Layout
Result:
The Center of gravity for the selected aircraft is finalized in this section
64
13. LANDING GEAR SELECTION
Aim
To identify the center of gravity for “11seated Business jet Aircraft”.
13.1 Theory
Every aircraft maintained in today’s Aerospace Company is equipped with a landing gear system.
Most Aerospace company aircraft also use arresting and catapult gear. The landing gear is that
portion of the aircraft that supports he weight of the aircraft while it is on the ground. The
landing gear contains components that are necessary for taking off and landing the aircraft safely.
Some of these components are landing gear struts that absorb landing and taxiing shocks; brakes
that are used to stop and, in some cases, steer the aircraft; nose wheel steering for steering the
aircraft; and in some cases, nose catapult components that provide the aircraft with carrier deck
takeoff capabilities.
13.2 LANDING GEAR DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
The following design requirements are identified to be satisfied: ground clearance requirement,
tip-back (or tip-forward angle if tail gear) angle requirement, take-off rotation requirement,
overturn angel requirement, structural integrity, aircraft ground stability, aircraft ground
controllability, low cost, maintainable, and
manufacturable.
Fig 13.1 Main landing gear Assembly
65
13.3 LANDING GEAR CONFIGURATION
This is a transport aircraft, and the passenger’s comfort is an important requirement. So,
the tail gear, bicycle, single main configurations would not satisfy this requirement.
Three viable configurations are:
1. Tricycle or nose-gear,
2. Quadricycle, and
3. Multi-bogey.
4. Ski type gear
5. Float type gear
66
The aircraft must compete with other transport aircraft in the market, and it must have a fairly
high performance, so a retractable landing gear (see figure) is the best option. The cost of this
configuration covered by the customers (passengers). Then, this will reduce the aircraft drag
during flight and therefore the aircraft will feature a higher performance. The higher landing gear
weight due to retraction system will be paid off compared with the other advantages of
a retractable landing gear
67
13.6 LANDING GEAR HEIGHT
The aircraft cg is at the same height as the wing mid-plane. The landing gear height is a function
of its attachment location. The nose gear will be naturally attached to the fuselage. But, the main
gear attachment tends to have two main alternatives: 1. Attach to the fuselage, 2. Attach to the
wing. As soon the wheel track is determined, we are able to decide about landing gear
attachment; and then the landing gear height may be determined.
13.6.1ATTACH MAIN GEAR TO THE FUSELAGE:
HLG = Haircraft –( Dfuse +Htail )
=7.8-(3.20+3.5)
HLG = 1.1 m
Result:
The landing gear for the selected aircraft is finalized in this section
68
14. LIFT ESTIMATION
Aim
To calculate lift for “11seated Business jet Aircraft”.
14.1 Theory
LIFT:
Component of aerodynamic force generated on aircraft perpendicular to flight direction.
14.2 Lift Coefficient (CL)
Amount of lift generated depends on:
Planform area (S), air density (p), flight speed (V), lift coefficient (CL)
L = ½ ×ρ×V2×S×CL
CL is a measure of lifting effectiveness and mainly depends upon:
Section shape, plan form geometry, angle of attack (α), compressibility Effect (mach number),
viscous effects (Reynolds number)
Shear stress distribution.
Shear stress primarily contributes to overall drag force on aircraft.
Lift mainly due to pressure distribution, especially on main lifting surfaces, i.e. wing.
Require (relatively) low pressure on upper surface and higher pressure on lower surface.
Any shape can be made to produce lift if either cambered or inclined to flow direction.
Classical aerofoil section is optimum for high subsonic lift/drag ratio.
Pressure variations with angle of attack
69
Highest pressure at LE stagnation point, lowest pressure at crest on upper surface.
Peak suction pressure on upper surface strengthens and moves forwards with increasing α.
Most lift from near LE on upper surface due to suction.
14.3 CALCULATION:
CL cruise = 2W/(ρVc2S)
Where = ρ is density at cruise altitude
CL cruise = 0.426
LIFT AT TAKE-OFF
CL take- off = CL cruise + Δ CL flap
where, Take off flap at 200 is
=0.427 + 0.5
C L take- off = 0.926
VR = 1.1 Vstall
= 1.1 ×65.97
VR = 72.56m/sec
L take-off = ½ ×ρ×VR2×S×CL take –off
where, ρ = 1.225 (at sea level)
= ½ ×1.225 × (72.56)^2 ×36.42×0.926
Ltake-off =108.77 KN
LIFT AT LANDING
CL landing = CL cruise + Δ CL flap
= 0.426+ 0.9
CL landing =1.326
VR = 0.7 Vstall
= 0.7 × 65.97
VR = 46.17 m/sec
where, ρ = 1.225 (at sea level)
L landing = ½ ×ρ× VR2 ×S×CL landing
= ½ ×1.225 × (46.17)^2×36.42×1.326
L landing = 63.053 KN
70
Result:
Thus the lift for the selected aircraft is finalized in this section
71
15. DRAG ESTIMATION
Aim
To calculate drag for “11seated Business jet Aircraft”.
15.1 Theory
DRAG:
Drag is the resolved component of the complete aerodynamic force which is parallel to the flight
direction (or relative oncoming airflow).It always acts to oppose the direction of motion. It is the
undesirable component of the aerodynamic force while lift is the desirable component.
15.2Drag Coefficient (CD)
Amount of drag generated depends on:
Planform area (S), air density, flight speed (V), drag coefficient (CD)
CD is a measure of aerodynamic efficiency and mainly depends upon:
Section shape, planform geometry, angle of attack, compressibility effects (Mach number),
viscous effects (Reynolds’ number).
Drag Components
Skin Friction.
Due to shear stresses produced in boundary layer.
Significantly more for turbulent than laminar types of boundary layers.
72
Due to static pressure distribution around body - Drag is the resolved component of the complete
aerodynamic force which is parallel to the flight direction (or elative oncoming airflow).It always
acts to oppose the direction of motion.
It is the undesirable component of the aerodynamic force while lift is the desirable component.
Wave Drag
Due to the presence of shock waves at transonic and supersonic speeds. Result of both direct
shock losses and the influence of shock waves on the boundary layer.
Often decomposed into portions related to:
Lift.
Thickness or Volume.
Result:
Thus the Drag for the selected aircraft is finalized in this section
73
16. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
Aim
To calculate performance characteristics for “11seated Business jet Aircraft”.
SLO=1769.2m
16.3 CLIMBING
Increasing the power by advancing the throttle produces a marked difference in the rate of climb.
Climb depends upon the reserve power or thrust. Reserve power is the available power over and
74
above that required to maintain horizontal flight at a given speed. Thus, if an airplane is equipped
with an engine which produces 200 total available horsepower and the airplane requires only 130
horsepower at a certain level flight speed, the power available for climb is 70 horsepower.
Although we sometimes use the terms "power" and "thrust" interchangeably, erroneously
implying that they are synonymous, it is well to distinguish between the two when discussing
climb performance. Work is the product of a force moving through a distance and is usually
independent of time. Work is measured by several standards; the most common unit is called a
"foot-pound." If a 1 pound mass is raised 1 foot, a work unit of 1 foot-pound has been performed.
The common unit of mechanical power is horsepower; one horsepower is work equivalent to
lifting 33,000 pounds a vertical distance of 1 foot in 1 minute. The term "power," implies work
rate or units of work per unit of time, and as such is a function of the speed at which the force is
developed. "Thrust," also a function of work, means the force which imparts a change in the
velocity of a mass. This force is measured in pounds but has no element of time or rate. It can be
said then, that during a steady climb, the rate of climb is a function of excess thrust.
When the airplane is in steady level flight or with a slight angle of climb, the vertical component
of lift is very nearly the same as the actual total lift. Such climbing flight would exist with the lift
very nearly equal to the weight. The net thrust of the power plant may be inclined relative to the
flight path but this effect will be neglected here for the sake of simplicity. Although the weight of
the airplane acts vertically, a component of weight will act rearward along the flight path If it is
assumed that the airplane is in a steady climb with essentially a small inclination of the flight
path, the summation of forces along the flight path resolves to the following:
Forces forward = Forces after
75
The basic relationship neglects some of the factors which may be of importance for airplanes of
very high climb performance. (For example, a more detailed consideration would account for the
inclination of thrust from the flight path, lift not being equal to weight, a subsequent change of
induced drag, etc.) However this basic relationship will define the principal factors affecting
climb performance.
This relationship means that, for a given weight of the airplane, the angle of climb depends on
the difference between thrust and drag, or the excess thrust . Of course, when the excess thrust is
zero, the inclination of the flight path is zero and the airplane will be in steady, level flight.
When the thrust is greater than the drag, the excess thrust will allow a climb angle depending on
the value of excess thrust. On the other hand, when the thrust is less than the drag, the deficiency
of thrust will allow an angle of descent.

Vertical pull-up manoeuvre.
Vertical pull-down manoeuvre
In the case of a commercial transport aircraft, it is capable of performing only a constant altitude
banked turn and not any vertical pull-up or pull-down manoeuvre.
CONSTANT ALTITUDE BANKED TURN
steady condition:
T=D
Force balance gives:
W = mg = Lcos θ
Fr = MV2/r = Lsin θ
tan θ = V2/(Rg)
So for given speed and turn radius there is only one correct bank angle for a coordinate (no
sideslip) turn. Maneuverability equations simplified through use of normal load factor (n) = L/W.
In the turn, n = L/W = sec θ > 1
and is therefore determined by bank angle. Turn radius (R) and turn rate (θ) are good indicators
of aircraft maneuverability.
W = L cos θ
let, θ = 300
W =42851.03 × cos (30)
W =37110.8Kg
n=L/w

CONCLUSION
After all analysis and design the first part of the aircraft design project has
come for landing. The result of the output specifications tell about features, advantages,
disadvantages, future requirements and all amenities in and about the aircraft.
The overview of the BUSINESS JET AIRCRAFT is very need-of hour for today corporate and
entrepreneurs who are travelling across transcontinental and domestically with less span of time with hassle-
free.
The main advantage of this class aircraft is pacifying from commercial jet operators, less-operating cost
and fuel consumption, less purchase cost and least time of total travel time enveloped. Since it takes fraction of
kilometres for landing it can operate at any airport rather large aircraft whose need mile and more run for take-
off.
And always there will be existence of negative if present of positive. This disadvantages are it cannot fly
Design is a fine blend of science, creativity, presence of mind and the application of each one of them
at the appropriate time, Design of anything needs experience and an optimistic progress towards the ideal
system. This involves the strong fundamentals in science and mathematics and their skilful applications,
which is a tough job endowed upon the design. We have enough hard work for this design project. A design never
gets completed in a flutter sense but it is one step further towards ideal system, But during the design of this
aircraft, we learnt a lot about aeronautics and its implications when applied to an aircraft design.
