📢 Dissemination update for HOPE 📢 This week, Roberto Merino Martinez from Delft University of Technology was in Sao Paolo (Brasil) to attend the #INTERNOISE 2025. He presented a paper entitled: 🔊 Human response to the #noise emissions of an isolated #propeller under turbulent inflow conditions The work carried out in WP3 and is co-authored by Luca Nicola Quaroni.

Hydrogen Optimized multi-fuel Propulsion system for clean and silEnt aircraft
Over ons
HOPE will deliver an integrated aircraft propulsion system comprising two multi-fuel ultra-high bypass ratio (UHBR) turbofan engines, a fuel cell based auxiliary propulsion and power unit (FC-APPU) driving an aft boundary layer ingestion (BLI) propulsor based on tube-wing aircraft configuration. The HOPE system: 1) Minimizes the combustion and noise emissions during landing and takeoff (LTO), hence the impact on air quality and noise annoyance near airports, without the trade-off of cruise emissions; 2) Retrofits the existing aircraft configuration, allowing substantial emission reduction to be achieved within a short time; 3) De-risks the use of hydrogen solely in existing tube-wing aircraft configurations; 4) Smoothens aviation’s energy transition through assessment and exploitation of several greener propulsion technologies at different maturity level. HOPE emission goals consist of LTO NOx -50%, CO -50%, soot -80%, perceived noise -20% (~3 dB per operation) and climate impact -30%, compared to state-of-the-art technology in 2020 (A320neo). To this end, HOPE will: 1) Design an integrated aircraft propulsion system accommodating multi-fuel (kero/SAF + H2) UHBR turbofan engines, FC-APPU, and an aft BLI propulsor; 2) Explore the novel idea of combining a BLI propulsor with FC-APPU for zero-emission taxiing; 3) Model, experiment and demonstrate for the first time a low emission multi-fuel combustion technology burning kero/SAF + H2 for future UHBR turbofan engine; 4) Assess societal impact, environmental burden, and cost benefits of the reduced noise and emissions by HOPE technology; 5) Formulate policy and recommendations to introduce HOPE technology. Consortium: Delft University of Technology (coordinator), Chalmers University of Technology, Bauhaus Luftfahrt, Ergon Research, HIT09 and Manchester Metropolitan University. Advisory Board: Airbus, Safran, Rotterdam The Hague Airport, EUROCONTROL, RIVM, KLM. Co-funded by EU (101096275) and UKRI (10068673).

Dissemination update for HOPE 📢 Last week, Luca Nicola Quaroni from Delft University of Technology was in Las Vegas to attend the #AIAA Aviation Forum and Ascend 2025. He presented two papers with the work carried out in WP3. You can find the doi links in the comments! 🔊 Investigation of #Noise Generation by a Model-#Propeller in Turbulent Inflow Through Advanced Signal Processing Techniques 💨 #Aeroacoustic Characterization of Acoustically-Treated Turbulence Grids in Axisymmetric Contraction for Open-Jet #WindTunnels

Arrived at M30, the activities of WP2 have some major updates. The multi-fuel burner #patent has been filed, the hardware manufactured and is nearly ready to be fired up. Its development is the result of relentless efforts by both Ergon Research and Delft University of Technology, combining #simulations and cold flow #experiments to optimize the design. We look forward to updating you in the next months with some #flame visualizations 🔥

Over the past couple of months, WP1 has been working on finalizing the HOPE #propulsion technology bricks for subsequent #aircraft studies. In this context, the final ducted BLI design and performance were defined and preliminary multi-fuel aircraft studies were carried out. The multi-fuel aircraft in HOPE will be designed so that a typical mission range of 800-1,000 nautical miles can be flown using only #hydrogen. Moving forward, WP1 will assess different integration and combination options of the HOPE propulsion technologies at an aircraft integrated level.

On Monday, the consortium of Delft University of Technology, Chalmers University of Technology, Bauhaus Luftfahrt, Ergon Research, Hit09 Srl and The Manchester Metropolitan University has met online for the M30 meeting of the project. The meeting was participated also by some Advisory Board members (Askin T. Isikveren, Nicholas Treleaven, Daniel Reckzeh, Laurent TABERNIER). The consortium partners and advisors discussed the first results achieved in the first 30 months of the project and paved the way for the continuation of the project. Next stop: M36 review meeting in Brussels! Other updates will follow on the achievements of the technical WPs! #sustainableaviation #propulsion #fuelcell #hybridelectric #hydrogen #SAF
