ENODISE is an enabler project aimed at reducing aircraft gaseous and noise emissions by improving the integration of the propulsion system with the airframe. Complex aerodynamic and acoustic engine-airframe interactions are involved, which must be better understood to yield the expected gains. ENODISE will investigate the main propulsion-airframe integration issues at low TRL and build a solid basis of knowledge and methods based on simplified but representative configurations, permitting to assess a variety of integration concepts.

ENODISE will investigate the existence of local/global integration optima via an innovative experimental methodology combined with reduced order modelling and machine learning strategies. Selected configurations will be simulated using methods ranging from low-CPU to high-fidelity. The low-CPU techniques will be employed to verify if the experimentally observed optima can be obtained numerically, and the high-fidelity methods will contribute to the detailed investigation of the aeroacoustic mechanisms in addition to permitting a fine-tuning of the low-cost methods. The work being carried out on relatively low-cost generic configurations, this project will permit spanning a broad parameter space and testing optimization-based robust design methods.
