The subject matter of this article is the process of subsonic air intake shaping for high-bypass ratio turbofan at the airplane preliminarily designing stage. The goal was to improve a mathematical model of V. I. Polikovskii method of subsonic air intake shaping for high-bypass ratio turbofan. The tasks are to consider the presence of cant of inlet cross-section, required to perform effective operation at airplane cruising angle-of-attacks; to increase the radius of curvature of the air intake lip to provide air flow near it without flow separation, which was definitely determined and could not be increased in the existing method; to improve constant length velocity gradient law (used in this method) so that too large duct expansion angles near the air intake outlet cross-section can be avoided; to consider the engine inlet spinner presence. The methods used are analytical and digital mathematical methods, implemented in MathCAD and Microsoft Visual Studio systems. The following results were obtained: based on the proposed method, new calculation module for the Power Unit software version 11.8 has been developed (С-language Win32 UNICODE application) with a friendly user interface. Conclusions. The scientific novelty of the results obtained is as follows: 1) mathematical model (algorithm and its program implementation) for circular turbofan air intake shaping has been improved considering cant of the inlet cross-section, air intake lip rounding with two radiuses, presence of engine inlet spinner, and zero expansion angles in the diffuser outlet cross-section; 2) adequacy of calculation results using the improved mathematical model is shown using comparison with shapes of circular turbofan air intakes, developed by the leading aviation companies.
