Yocova: Behind Airbus' early-stage hydrogen glider emissions and warming research

Non-carbon emissions from fossil fuel kerosene include oxides of nitrogen (commonly referred to as NOx), soot, oxidised sulphur, and water vapour.

Key Points: 
  • Non-carbon emissions from fossil fuel kerosene include oxides of nitrogen (commonly referred to as NOx), soot, oxidised sulphur, and water vapour.
  • When it comes to hydrogen, airframers have two options: one is to burn hydrogen directly in the engine, while the other is to power aircraft via hydrogen fuel cells.
  • The hydrogen glider will be modified by teams working with the atmospheric research Perlan Project , which itself uses a glider as its research aircraft and which achieved the subsonic altitude record in 2018.
  • Given that hydrogen is substantially less dense than kerosene, the rear pilot seating in the glider will be replaced by two 700-bar hydrogen tanks that will power the hydrogen combustion turbojet engine.

Natilus , a U.S. company producing the worlds first purposefully-designed and manufactured autonomous aircraft for air freight transport, has announced its expansion to Brown Field to host engineering and manufacturing facilities for the Natilus family of aircraft.

Key Points: 
  • Natilus , a U.S. company producing the worlds first purposefully-designed and manufactured autonomous aircraft for air freight transport, has announced its expansion to Brown Field to host engineering and manufacturing facilities for the Natilus family of aircraft.
  • The Brown Field facility includes a 12,000 square-foot hangar for prototype final assembly, structural testing, systems integration and secondary structural bonding.
  • There is also a generous 8,000 foot runway for testing, with the ability to land large, oversized cargo aircraft.
  • The 1,500 square feet of additional office space will supplement Natilus engineering offices in downtown San Diego.
