This Aircraft Conceptual Design For The New Aviation spreadsheet from 3D-LABS follows ASTM standards and gives instant, checkable results for practising engineers — no manual derivation required.
Aircraft Conceptual Design for the New Aviation covers constraint analysis, configuration trade studies, aerodynamic performance estimation, and weight budgeting for electric, hydrogen, and hybrid-electric aircraft.
What standards does this book reference?
FAR Part 23 (2023 amended), FAR Part 25, EUROCAE ED-330 (eVTOL MASPS), and RTCA DO-311A for battery system minimum performance.
What is the constraint analysis equation for wing loading?
Take-off: W/S <= (sigma*C_Lmax*s_TO*g)/(T/W*1.44), where C_Lmax=2.0-3.5 with full flaps, sigma=rho/rho0. Cruise: W/S = q*C_L_cruise = 0.5*rho*V^2*(L/D)*W_cruise/T.
What new propulsion systems are covered?
All-electric (>=500 Wh/kg cell target), liquid hydrogen fuel cell (LH2, 33.3 kWh/kg, 3x Li-ion), hybrid-electric P2 parallel architecture (EASA AMC to SC-MASC), and SAF (ASTM D7566). Indian certification under DGCA CAR Section 2 Series B.
