This study demonstrates the integration of a HFLC system into a wing in an industrial context. The goal is to evaluate the HLFC system objectively by comparing to a non-HLFC aircraft. The assessment covers a mission performance estimation and a life cycle simulation with three scenarios to determine fuel and cost savings.
