Abstract
The aviation sector has undergone substantial growth, leading to a corresponding increase in emissions attributed to this industry. This escalation in emissions has notably contributed to the intensification of global warming. This research provides a comprehensive examination of various prospective solutions to mitigate these emissions. Among the proposed solutions is the adoption of an intercooled turbofan engine. This specific engine type holds the promise of realizing a 3.1% reduction in fuel consumption compared to traditional engines. Furthermore, the incorporation of a recuperator in an intercooled turbofan engine could potentially lead to a significant decrease in fuel consumption by up to 30%, alongside a remarkable 20% improvement in engine efficiency. The discourse also extends to the subject of hydrogen-powered aviation, underscoring its substantial potential in achieving emissions reduction goals. However, the associated challenges, especially those related to hydrogen storage, are also explored in this study. The forthcoming era of jet engine technology may witness the amalgamation of intercooled turbofan engines and hydrogen energy sources as a viable pathway for substantial emissions reduction.
