Connected to this industrial programme are the cooperation programmes “MEGAFLOW” under leadership of the DLR and “Transition” by the DFG, and several contributions by DLR and universities. The programme is oriented towards technologies required for a MEGALINER which gains momentum by the ambitious plans for a new large Airbus A3XX. In the first year new technological steps were undertaken in theory, design and experiment. Some critical steps were verified by wing designs checked in wind tunnel tests.

However, these are not capable to solve complicated three-dimensional problems of vortical flows and shocks. On the other hand Euler and Navier-Stokes codes are too expensive and not accurate enough for design purposes, especially in regard of drag and interference prediction. The reasons for these deficiencies are investigated and a way to overcome them by future developments is demonstrated.

T1 - Required aerodynamic technologies T2 - New design concepts for high speed air transport. - (Courses and lectures / International Centre for Mechanical Sciences ; 366) N2 - In the preceeding chapters on “Son of Concorde, a Technology Challenge” and “Aerodynamic Multipoint Design Challenge” it was explained, that a well balanced contribution of new technologies in all major disciplines is required for realisation of a new Supersonic Commercial Transport (SCT). One of these technologies - usually one of the most important for aircraft-is aerodynamics. Here, the required “pure” aerodynamic technologies are specified in more detail, according to our present knowledge. Increasing insight into the problems may change the balance of importance of the individual technologies and may require some more contributions. We must never confine our knowledge to the knowledge base of an expert at a given time, but must stay open for new insights.
