Abstract The aircraft design is a collaborative and multidisciplinary process. It involves several experts with different disciplinary competences. These disciplinary experts often belong to different departments or organizations. The EU funded H2020 AGILE project aims at developing new generation of Multidisciplinary Design Analysis and Optimization (MDAO) frameworks. In particular, the AGILE project tackles the investigation and the development of technologies able to enhance the collaboration between the disciplinary experts. The present paper deals with a MDAO framework developed in the context of the AGILE research project. The integration of some disciplinary expertise is described by means of a case study of an innovative regional aircraft. Some disciplinary design variables are investigated to verify the correctness of disciplines integration and to quantify the mutual dependences among the design disciplines. In particular, the variation of the engine By Pass Ratio and the electrification level of the On-Board Systems are investigated through the MDAO workflow developed for aircraft preliminary design. Finally, the results show a plausible interaction among the disciplines and interesting trends regarding aircraft systems electrification.

使用 AGILE 范式在协作和分布式设计框架内进行多学科飞机集成

摘要 飞机设计是一个多学科协作的过程。它涉及多位具有不同学科能力的专家。这些学科专家往往属于不同的部门或组织。欧盟资助的 H2020 AGILE 项目旨在开发新一代多学科设计分析和优化 (MDAO) 框架。特别是，AGILE 项目解决了能够加强学科专家之间合作的技术的调查和开发。本论文涉及在 AGILE 研究项目的背景下开发的 MDAO 框架。一些学科专业知识的整合通过创新支线飞机的案例研究来描述。研究了一些学科设计变量，以验证学科整合的正确性，量化设计学科之间的相互依赖关系。特别是，通过为飞机初步设计开发的 MDAO 工作流程研究了发动机旁路比的变化和机载系统的电气化水平。最后，结果显示了有关飞机系统电气化的学科之间的合理相互作用和有趣的趋势。
