This chapter aims to present background knowledge of BLI for aircraft applications. Literature is reviewed for previous research related to relevant issues in propulsion integration (PI). The structure of this chapter is organized as follows: the first part briefly describes the typical performance of uninstalled propulsion. The second part introduces the issues of PI for the state-of-the-art conventional aircraft with engines installed under the wing. The third part discusses propellers ingesting the body wake, including ship propellers and pusher propellers applied for aircraft. Lastly, the possible benefits and challenges due to BLI are discussed.
