Liquid hydrogen is shown to be the ideal fuel for civil transport
aircraft, as well as for many types of military aircraft. Hydrogen
Aircraft Technology discusses the potential of hydrogen for
subsonic, supersonic, and hypersonic applications. Designs with
sample configurations of aircraft for all three speed categories
are presented, in addition to performance comparisons to equivalent
designs for aircraft using conventional kerosine-type fuel and
configurations for aircraft using liquid methane fuel. Other topics
discussed include conceptual designs of the principal elements of
fuel containment systems required for cryogenic fuels, operational
elements (e.g., pumps, valves, pressure regulators, heat
exchangers, lines and fittings), modifications for turbine engines
to maximize the benefit of hydrogen, safety aspects compared to
kerosine and methane fueled designs, equipment and facility designs
for servicing hydrogen-fueled aircraft, production methods for
liquid hydrogen, and the environmental advantages for using liquid
hydrogen. The book also presents a plan for conducting the
necessary development of technology and introducing hydrogen fuel
into the worldwide civil air transport industry. Hydrogen Aircraft
Technology will provide fascinating reading for anyone interested
in aircraft and hydrogen fuel designs.
