Hydrogen aircraft present huge challenges due to hydrogen complex storage in pressurized cryogenic tank. This study focuses on the integration of a medium-fidelity hydrogen tank model into an overall aircraft design tool and its exploitation to optimize a hydrogen aircraft. This integration allows the comparison of tank configurations at the aircraft level and the search of the optimum ones.
