The project MYTHOS proposes to develop and demonstrate an innovative and disruptive design methodology for future short/medium range civil engines. For a complete decarbonization, this class of engines should be operating using a wide range of liquid and gaseous fuels including Sustainable Air Fuels (SAFs) and, ultimately, pure hydrogen.

To achieve this goal, the MYTHOS consortium develops and adopts a multidisciplinary multi-fidelity modelling approach for the characterization of the relevant engine components, deploying the full power of the method of machine learning. The latter will lead through hidden-physics discovery to advance data-driven reduced models which will be embedded in a holistic tool for the prediction of the environmental footprint of the civil aviation of all speeds. A unique aspect of the project is the high-fidelity experimental validation of the numerical approaches. MYTHOS consortium through this approach will contribute to reduce time-to-market for engines designed and engineered to burn various types of environmentally friendly fuels, such as SAF, in the short and medium term, and hydrogen, in the long term.
