The global aviation fleet numbers rise as a result of increase in flight numbers and hours. Aviation transportation industry causes the environmental degradation and global warming effect. In this regard, greener and sustainable aviation issues have been more interested in researchers, engine manufacturers, and society in recent years. This study presents a model about sustainable aviation for finding the environmental effects and sustainable level of aero-engine systems. These metrics consist of the general aviation metrics, energy-based metrics, exergy-based aviation metrics, environmental-based metrics, and sustainability-based metrics. These aviation metrics are applied to a real turbofan engine to assess the engine’s sustainability level and its main components.
