What is TERA2020? • A multi-disciplinary tool for aero engine conceptual design. • Developed by universities in the EU collaborative projects VITAL, NEWAC and DREAM projects for over 6 years. • Incorporates significant feedback from industry. • Demonstrated as an effective tool in NEWAC for sensitivity analysis, parametric studies and optimisation of the study engines. • It is not an expert system, so it still requires the user to have a good under-standing of engine performance and design and knowledge of the capabilities of the new technologies available for each engine.

Methods and validity •
The developed tool is targeted towards identifying an appropriate design space where more complex and time-consuming tools could be utilised.
•
In many cases the modelling carried out is based on correlations that are available in the public domain or have been supplied by original equipment manufacturers within the European collaborative projects VITAL and NEWAC.
•
It is recognized that such correlations have a limited range of validity and are dependent on supporting engineering science base.
•
As an appropriate design space is defined, a more rigorous iterative design procedure would typically be set involving a large number of company specialists.

TERA2020 may be utilised for a variety of studies sensitivity analysis, cycle optimisation, engine/aircraft matching… (more on next presentation!)
European Workshop on New Aero Engine Concepts Munich, 30 June – 1 July 2010
Conclusions • Overall TERA2020 has progressed well and has met its NEWAC targets. • TERA2020 is targeted towards identifying an appropriate design space where more complex and time-consuming tools could be utilised. Results produced can give useful insight on novel concepts. • TERA2020 enables technology assessment within collaborative precompetitive studies to be broadened to consider additional factors such as economics and environmental impact. • The tool is most useful for rapid optimization and ‘what if’ studies about a well worked-up design. • TERA2020 optimisation studies indicate further potential from the NEWAC innovative concepts in terms of block fuel (more on next presentation!)

Outlook • Further TERA2020 work to be carried out during the NEWAC prolongation • Work focuses on 3 new configurations – Geared Turbofan configuration with Intercooled Core for Long Range applications (GTICLR) – Geared Turbofan configuration with Active Core for Short Range applications (GTACSR) at higher OPR (ACAC as enabler) and with unconventional heat management aspects – Contra-Rotating turbofan configuration with Contra-Rotating core for Long Range applications (CRCRLR)
