This study contributes to the maturation of a conceptual LH2 aircraft by integrating results of high-fidelity simulations into the OAD process: a hydrogen specific engine model including preconditioning, an LH2 system architecture and on-board system topology, and a structural tank integration concept validated by crash simulations are introduced and the corresponding integration effects analysed.
