Summary
This paper presents the multi-disciplinary design code PrADO-Sup for supersonic commercial transport aircraft which is a strongly modified and extended version of PrADO, the Preliminary Aircraft Design and Optimization Code developed at the Institute of Aircraft Design and Structural Mechanics of the Technical University of Braunschweig. The modular structure of PrADO-Sup is shown and all topics within the iteration and optimization loops are addressed. Detailed information is given on the integration of an advanced aerodynamic model. Here the higher order panel code HISSS, developed by DASA-LM, was implemented to provide data for a wide range of both subsonic and supersonic onflow conditions.
