10 Groen ondanks Groei
Ultra-efficient engines 11
More powerful & efficient engine higher engine weight strengthened, heavier wing structure less fuel carrying capability lower range 12
Materials comparison 13
50% of structure weight = carbon composite 14
Benefits of composites in aircraft: reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions less corrosion & fatigue than for traditional aluminum structure: 787: major overhaul every 13 years instead of every 6 years more comfort through higher moisture content larger windows 15
Aerospace OEM objectives: Reduce cost Reduce weight Improve repair and maintenance Environmentally friendly materials and processes 16
