This report describes the analytical modeling and evaluation of an unconventional commercial transport aircraft concept designed to address aircraft noise and emission issues. A strut-braced wing configuration with overwing, ultra-high bypass ratio, hydrogen fueled turbofan engines is considered. Estimated noise and emission characteristics are compared to a conventional configuration designed for the same mission and significant benefits are identified. The design challenges and technology issues which would have to be addressed to make the concept a viable alternative to current aircraft designs are discussed. This concept is one of the "Quiet Green Transport" aircraft concepts studied as part of NASA's Revolutionary Aerospace Systems Concepts (RASC) Program. The RASC Program seeks to develop revolutionary concepts that address strategic objectives of the NASA Enterprises, such as reducing aircraft noise and emissions, and to identify enabling advanced technology requirements for the concepts.Guynn, Mark D. and Olson, Erik D.Langley Research CenterAIRCRAFT DESIGN; AIRCRAFT NOISE; HYDROGEN ENGINES; WINGS; EXHAUST EMISSION; NOISE REDUCTION; MATHEMATICAL MODELS; NOISE MEASUREMENT; BYPASS RATIO; THRUST-WEIGHT RATIO; AIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE; TURBOFAN ENGINES
