SFB 255:  Transatmospheric Flight Systems - Fundamentals of Aerothermodynamics, Powerplants and Flight Mechanics

Subject Area Thermal Engineering/Process Engineering
Term from 1989 to 2003
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 5475209
 
The collaborative research centre 255 is concerned with research of hypersonic flight fundamentals. The great challenges of hypersonic flight are due to basic technical-scientific problems in several areas to which aerothermodynamics, propulsion and flight mechanics belong. A central issue is the capability for a flight at very high speed using aerodynamic lift and air-breathing propulsion, with extreme performance requirements to be met in regard to payload or range, respectively. The inherent, high complexity of such flight systems requires a close, interdisciplinary cooperation.
