Type Certification Services

Type Certification

There are a few things that need to happen in order to get an aircraft component or system certified. Understanding and meeting the relevant standards and specification requirements is key. After that, the component or system needs to be tested and checked thoroughly. Documentation and records must be in order, so we can help you with that.

  • Creating aircraft operating instructions, flight manuals, and maintenance manuals.

  • Setting up engineering, production, flight testing, quality control, document control, continued airworthiness tracking required by the type certificate standards and specification requirements.

  • Periodic audit of design and systems to the type certificate standards and specification requirements.

Open source solutions

Aircraft design and aeronautical engineering are extremely complex and expensive processes. Even the simplest change to an aircraft can result in costly mistakes. Open source technology can be used in aircraft design process to improve safety and reduce costs. AircraftDesign.eu provides open source software support for aircraft design and aeronautical engineering. We have a lot of experience implementing open source technologies in a productive environment. Here are some of the leading technologies we can help with.

OpenFOAM for aircraft design

OpenFOAM

OpenFOAM is a software application that helps with fluid dynamics analysis, such as thermodynamic analysis and transport modeling. Some of the key features of this software include turbulence and thermophysics modeling, as well as multiphase flow simulations.
