By Pilar Wolfsteller2021-02-12T13:03:00+00:00 Disruptive alternative propulsion will not come to aviation in leaps and bounds, but will require time, significant investment and partnerships between major manufacturers and small, nimble start-ups. That is according to aerospace propulsion experts who spoke on 11 February during a sustainability-focused webinar hosted by FlightGlobal. They note that while clean-energy propulsion may take years to develop, the pandemic has forced the industry to take a closer look at how next-generation technologies are developed, tested and introduced. The sector must also re-examine how to best contribute to climate change discussions. “We are seeing a huge opportunity for us to completely reset, go at sustainability from an aerospace perspective and actually start making some fundamental changes,” says Neil Cloughley, managing director of UK aviation start-up Faradair. ....
Airbus exploring hydrogen fuel cell propellor “pods” for aircraft propulsion Airbus is conducting studies to determine how scalable a hydrogen fuel cell “pod” configuration, among others, could be to large commercial aircraft. The aviation industry has developed numerous configurations twinjet, s-duct, winglets, contra-rotating propellers over the last five decades that have enabled aircraft to fly higher, faster and longer. Now, Airbus engineers are unveiling a new configuration as part of the ZEROe program (earlier post) that could enable a passenger aircraft to fly farther than ever without emissions. The innovative approach consists of six, eight-bladed hydrogen-fuel-cell-powered “pods” mounted beneath the aircraft wing. ....
Bethell – ‘stronger than ever’ Published by : Bobby Griffin (BEC) England’s Daniel Bethell says he is in a better position now than before the COVID-19 pandemic began. We spoke with the world number two SL3 men’s singles player during a ‘home tournament’ in early December, a competition designed by Team GB to give focus to a team where no other event exist right now. This event has been eagerly awaited, in a year where few tournaments survived, explains Bethell - for me it has been even longer since I’ve played a tournament. Where many competed in South America in the Spring, I haven’t played since Japan in November last year. It has been a really different experience this year compared to last, where we were travelling around the world almost monthly for a qualifying tournament for The Games ....
European aerospace giant Airbus revealed more details about its hydrogen aircraft project on Thursday (17 December), which could include a propeller-driven plane “unlike anything seen on today’s runways”. In September, Airbus said it aimed to develop a commercial airliner by 2035 that can be fuelled by hydrogen, potentially unlocking the prospect of zero-emission air travel. As part of that presentation, the aerospace firm released three concepts: a propeller-driven regional aircraft, a short-to-medium-haul airliner and a radical ‘blended-wing’ aircraft. Airbus is due to decide by 2025 which design to focus on. Today, its engineers gave more details about the propeller concept, which could be powered by three ‘pods’ on each wing. Those self-contained units would include all of the liquid hydrogen, fuel cells, propeller blades and electronics needed to lift the aircraft. ....
