Low-boom supersonic business jet: aerodynamic analysis and mission simulation towards a CO2 emission standard

Giacomo Richiardi, Samuele Graziani, Oscar Gori, Nicole Viola

Abstract. This study aims at investigating the aerodynamic characteristics and mission performance of a supersonic business jet at a conceptual design stage. Moreover, the environmental impact of such concept is analyzed to support the development of a potential CO2 emissions standard for supersonic transport aircraft. The case study considered for the analysis is a supersonic business jet.
