Opis

This book uncovers design considerations for an inlet of a split-wing, electric distributed propulsion aircraft. The purpose of this document is to demonstrate the effectiveness of the split-wing design for electric an hybrid-electric systems. It is still unknown whether the split-wing system is competitive compared to over-wing and under-wing configurations. Further investigation is required to better understand these new aircraft configurations.
