The Water-Enhanced Turbofan is a promising concept for reducing the climate impact of aviation in terms of CO2 and Non-CO2 effects. However, one challenge is the size and mass of the propulsion system in terms of installation and fuel burn penalties. This work deals with the estimation of the flow path and mass on conceptual level and comapres it to a conventional turbofan architecture.
