“…The input parameters that are varied in the DoE are gathered in Table 2. Although the baseline reference aircraft is based on a regional turboprop, the mission parameters (harmonic range, payload mass and cruise Mach number) are also sampled at higher values to analyze the trends in the regional jet or short-haul market, comparable to recent research on high-capacity turboprop aircraft [42]. A payload mass of 100 kg is assumed per passenger, including luggage.…”

This paper deals with the assessment of both longitudinal and directional aerodynamic characteristics of an innovative large capacity turboprop aircraft by means of a wind tunnel test campaign on a scaled model. The aircraft under investigation is an innovative turboprop platform providing for a three lifting surface layout and a rear engine installation. The scope of this research is to deeply investigate the aerodynamic behavior of such an innovative platform to assess the aerodynamic interferences among the aircraft components. In particular, the effects of the third lifting surface (the canard), installed in front of the main wing, must be carefully investigated to have a reliable estimate of the aircraft stability and controllability characteristics. This innovative platform provides for a rear engine installation at the tip of the horizontal tailplane. Thus, a specific experimental campaign has been dedicated to investigating the aircraft aerodynamic characteristics in power on conditions.

“…A passenger aircraft featuring horizontal tailplane mounted propeller configuration is currently studied in the Clean-Sky European research project IRON (see Refs. [4,5]) in which the technical disciplines of performance, safety, cost, stability and aerodynamic interaction are addressed. Such an aft-mounted layout may also be used for distributed propulsion systems where part of the propulsive power is placed near the tail of the aircraft, such as proposed in Ref.…”
