This paper presents a design approach for large passenger aircraft nacelles. It describes nacelle functions, configurations, and major components. Design criteria for particular components of the nacelle are presented. Typical materials used for structure build including composites are elaborated. Certification requirements are shown. The paper presents challenges for nacelle design and build, including weight, aerodynamic smoothness, nacelle integration, and cost.
