Aircraft–Propulsion Integration Guide
EDF performance is strongly influenced by aircraft-level integration. YUNTU provides multi-disciplinary engineering partnership from airframe concept to flight trials.
Inlet & Outlet Airflow Optimization
Inlet lip radius, duct diffuser expansion ratio, and boundary layer ingestion (BLI) must be matched to airframe angle of attack and forward airspeed to eliminate separation.
Installation Envelope & Airframe Embedding
Optimized for wing-submerged, flush-bay, or podded pylon mountings. High-modulus carbon composite shroud provides 360-degree blade containment and structural rigidity.
Thermal Management & Cooling Environment
Motor and ESC thermal management must be validated against hot-day climb profiles (ISA +30°C) via dedicated airflow channels or liquid heat exchanger jackets.
Bus Voltage & Flight Control Coupling
Sub-5ms telemetry latency over CAN Aerospace bus ensures synchronized RPM response across multi-thruster arrays for precise attitude stabilization.
EnlargeCustomized EDF configuration based on customer requirements
Three-piece modular carbon composite architecture (nacelle cowling, integrated core thruster, and aerodynamic casing) engineered for wing-embedded, podded, and turbojet-to-electric conversion airframes.
Turbojet-to-Electric Propulsion Conversion Studies
For turbojet-to-EDF conversion projects, YUNTU recommends jointly defining the propulsion configuration together with the overall aircraft architecture, aerodynamic characteristics, power system, thermal management, and flight control logic. Aircraft–propulsion integration is not limited to the engine or propulsor itself; it also involves aerodynamic, structural, electrical, control, and subsystem interfaces between the propulsion system and the airframe.
Typical Aircraft Applications
Engineered for advanced airframes requiring high static thrust, enclosed rotor safety, and clean electric propulsion integration.
VTOL Fixed-Wing & Hybrid-Lift UAVs
Dual or quad ducted thrusters providing vertical takeoff and clean transition into forward cruise. Operating at 2,500 rpm cruise speed maximizes aerodynamic efficiency and corridor range.
