Propulsion-Airframe Integration Technical Interchange Meeting

The 1st Propulsion-Airframe Integration Technical Interchange Meeting (PAI–TIM) was held in Cleveland, Ohio, at the Ohio Aerospace Institute from May 30 to 31, 2018. The meeting was organized by representatives from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) aeronautics research centers (i.e., Ames Research Center, Armstrong Flight Research Center, Glenn Research Center, and Langley Research Center) and the Air Force Research Laboratory and was sponsored by NASA’s Advanced Air Vehicle Technology project. The purpose of the PAI-TIM was to exchange information and ideas amongst this community of researchers in a workshop-type setting. At this meeting, results were shared in the form of presentations only (i.e., no papers were required) regarding ongoing research efforts in both the experimental and modeling areas associated with propulsion-airframe integration for advanced subsonic and supersonic vehicles. During the 2-day meeting, a total of 22 presentations were made and were organized into three sessions: (1) Vision and PAI Challenges of Future Air Vehicles, (2) PAI Modeling and Simulation: State-of-the-Art and Challenges/Needs, and (3) PAI Testing: Test Techniques, Results and Challenges/Needs. All but two of the presentations made at the PAI-TIM are included in this publicly available conference proceedings document.
