Boundary Layer Ingesting (BLI) Ducted Fan for Silent Flight

Electric ducted fan propulsion systems are gaining attention for their potential to power next-generation aircraft towards NetZero emissions. These systems can be mounted away from the airframe or embedded within it, the latter being known as Boundary Layer Ingesting (BLI) ducted fans. BLI ducted fans, also known as embedded engines, are partially integrated into the plane's main body.
