Developing radically-changed aircraft concepts comes with high investments and risks. The objective of EXAELIA is to evaluate flying test beds that are needed for de-risking the development of those disruptive future long-range aircraft. Novel flying test beds will thus help to accelerate the reduction of all aviation emissions and its climate and environmental impacts by 2050. EXAELIA will predesign flying test beds for the most critical flight test challenges for the disruptive long-range aircraft, with the additional objective to enable re-use of the flying test beds for additional flight test needs.
EXAELIA investigates, through advanced multi-disciplinary digital methods, the potential emissions reduction of long-range air traffic offered by promising blended wing body aircraft configurations and by hydrogen-powered tube-and-wing configurations with associated, disruptive propulsion concepts, and including their constituting radical new technologies.
Roadmaps, but also operational and business plans, are prepared for the further development of the EXAELIA flying test beds and the use of these assets in the development of the future long-range aircraft.
Led by NLR, the EXAELIA consortium consists of the major European aviation research centres, academia and four SMEs, spread over thirteen European countries.
