G. Licheva¹, S. Liscouët-Hanke¹; ¹Concordia University, Canada

This paper presents a parametric model for cryogenic hydrogen tanks for aircraft conceptual design in an MDAO context. The model considers hydrogen properties, filling pressure, tank geometry, insulation, and installation constraints. Case studies for various tank installation and configuration scenarios are presented for a notional business aircraft, considering aircraft-level impact.
