Advanced propfans were selected to be used throughout the family of commuters. These propulsion systems offer a 25 to 28 percent fuel savings over comparably sized turbofans operating in the 1990s. A brief study of the propulsion systems available for the family of commuters is provided and the selection of the advanced turbo-props justified. The propeller and engine designs and performance are discussed. The integration of these designs is examined. Also addressed are the noise considerations and constraints due to propfan installation.
