ZORAN 1

Supersonic Jet

Following the demise of Concorde in 2003 after three decades of operation, it was deemed that the costs of development, maintenance and operation had condemned commercial supersonic travel to the museum of aviation.

However, given advances in materials and engine technology and the expansion of the global economy, the demand for direct travel between international hubs such as Tokyo, New York, Shanghai, London and Hong Kong has only increased as business commuters seek to make the journey in hours rather than days.

As the Asian tigers rise and the pace of business swiftens, so the dream of same-day transcontinental travel has returned.

As a consequence, many leading players within the aerospace sector have rekindled their competitive interest in the sector as the skies reopen to a second age of supersonic flight.

ZORAN 1

Twice as far in half the time

NGC, in collaboration with various international partners, seeks to create a no-frills, zero-emission Mach 2.0 supersonic jet powered initially by special aviation fuels (SAVs) and later by hydrogen to fly affordably between global hubs. With variable swept wing configuration, the aircraft will be able to ‘fly friendly’ across most air traffic zones presenting no sonic boom over land.

As it would cruise at Mach 2 it could fly from London to New York or Dubai in just over two hours or from Beijing to Tokyo in just over an hour.  Lighter, stronger and faster than its processor, it would provide superior competition in terms of economy, capacity and price point than its current rivals.

The current trend reveals a design brief that offers lower capacity and greater luxury, specifically tailored towards the private and executive travel markets.  We believe that this is irrational, as most business travellers and ‘day trippers’ travel light and prize speed over the creature comforts afforded by traditional long haul flights. This inevitably means that the price points and costs per passenger of the rival  will certainly far exceed those of Concorde as they will only have a fraction of its capacity.

ZORAN ULTIMATE GODDARD

Plasma Propulsion Spacecraft

Goddard to be first rocket powered by plasma propulsion.
Plasma rocket propulsion theory
A plasma rocket is a type of electric propulsion system that generates thrust by heating a gas to an extremely high temperature until it becomes a plasma. The plasma is then accelerated out of the back of the engine, producing a high velocity jet of exhaust that will propel the Goddard spacecraft forward towards light speed.

The basic theory behind plasma rocket propulsion is that it uses electric fields to ionise a gas, turning it into a plasma, which can then be accelerated using magnetic fields. The process begins with a gas, typically a noble gas like xenon, which is injected into a chamber called the ionisation chamber. Inside this chamber, a high voltage is applied to the gas, which strips electrons from the gas atoms, ionising it and turning it into a plasma.

Once the gas has been ionized, it enters the acceleration chamber, where it is subjected to a magnetic field. The magnetic field creates a force on the positively charged ions in the plasma, accelerating them out of the engine at high speeds. This produces thrust in the opposite direction, propelling the spacecraft forward.

The efficiency of a plasma rocket is determined by a number of factors, including the temperature of the plasma, the strength of the magnetic field, and the design of the Goddard engine which will use an ultra-high temperature plasma and a 100 Tesla magnetic field to produce unprecedented thrust.
