Abstract:

Aviation is an integral part of modern society and economy. A fundamental challenge facing the aviation sector in the coming decades is to enable the 3.8% projected growth in air traffic per year and the associated benefits while simultaneously reducing aviation’s impact on the environment in terms of air quality and climate. This thesis improves the scientific understanding of the atmospheric impacts attributable to aviation gas turbine emissions and the means of mitigating them with a focus on the propulsion system. Specifically, this thesis addresses aspects of 1) aerosol formation from aviation-attributable NOx and SOx, 2) the technical extent to which the air quality and climate impacts of aviation can be minimized, and 3) how propulsion system design for supersonic commercial aircraft in the future would impact the environment.
