Optimum engine cycles were determined for noise levels of 10, 15, and 20 EPNdB below current FAA regulations, using 200-passenger trijet aircraft flying over ranges from 5555 to 10,200 km at cruise speeds of Mach 0.90 and 0.98. The tests showed that the noise constraints imposed compromises on the optimum cycle with resulting economic penalties. The economic penalties, however, could be effectively offset by applying advanced engine technologies.
