Abstract
This paper introduces a methodology to assess hydrogen aircraft fuselages in preliminary design. Considering the overall tank arrangement, number of passengers, seat abreast and more, the tool derives a variety of fuselage geometries. These concepts are then evaluated on both fuselage and overall aircraft level using key parameters to identify the optimum configurations for the given input.
