  • Application to the Flight
    Journal name 000(00):1–13 A Methodology for Vehicle and Mission ©The Author(s) 2010 Reprints and permission: Level Comparison of More Electric sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI:doi number Aircraft Subsystem Solutions - Application http://mms.sagepub.com to the Flight Control Actuation System Imon Chakraborty∗ and Dimitri N. Mavris† Aerospace Systems Design Laboratory, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA 30332, USA Mathias Emeneth‡ and Alexander Schneegans§ PACE America Inc., Seattle, WA 98115, USA Abstract As part of the More Electric Initiative, there is a significant interest in designing energy-optimized More Electric Aircraft, where electric power meets all non-propulsive power requirements. To achieve this goal, the aircraft subsystems must be analyzed much earlier than in the traditional design process. This means that the designer must be able to compare competing subsystem solutions with only limited knowledge regarding aircraft geometry and other design characteristics. The methodology presented in this work allows such tradeoffs to be performed, and is driven by subsystem requirements definition, component modeling and simulation, identification of critical or constraining flight conditions, and evaluation of competing architectures at the vehicle and mission level. The methodology is applied to the flight control actuation system, where electric control surface actuators are likely to replace conventional centralized hydraulics in future More Electric Aircraft. While the potential benefits of electric actuation are generally accepted, there is considerable debate regarding the most suitable electric actuator - electrohydrostatic or electromechanical. These two actuator types form the basis of the competing solutions analyzed in this work, which focuses on a small narrowbody aircraft such as the Boeing 737-800.

    This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 09/29/2016 and available online at https://federalregister.gov/d/2016-23088, and on FDsys.gov [4910-13-P] DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration 14 CFR Part 39 [Docket No. FAA-2016-9112; Directorate Identifier 2016-NM-091-AD] RIN 2120-AA64 Airworthiness Directives; The Boeing Company Airplanes AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM). SUMMARY: We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain The Boeing Company Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes. This proposed AD was prompted by reports of the Krueger flap bullnose departing an airplane during taxi, which caused damage to the wing structure and thrust reverser. This proposed AD would require a one-time detailed visual inspection for discrepancies in the Krueger flap bullnose attachment hardware, and related investigative and corrective actions if necessary. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct missing Krueger flap bullnose hardware. Such missing hardware could result in the Krueger flap bullnose departing the airplane during flight, which could damage empennage structure and lead to the inability to maintain continued safe flight and landing. DATES: We must receive comments on this proposed AD by [INSERT DATE 45 DAYS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]. ADDRESSES: You may send comments, using the procedures found in 14 CFR 11.43 and 11.45, by any of the following methods: • Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov.

  • Bird Strike Analysis for Impact-Resistant Design of Aircraft Wing Krueger Flap
    Bird Strike Analysis for Impact-Resistant Design of Aircraft Wing Krueger Flap Sebastian Heimbs 1, Wolfgang Machunze 1, Gerrit Brand 1, Bernhard Schlipf 2 1 Airbus Group Innovations, 81663 Munich, Germany 2 Airbus Operations GmbH, 28199 Bremen, Germany Abstract: Bird strike is a severe high velocity impact load case for all forward-facing aircraft components and a major design driver due to the high energies and the strict safety requirements involved. This paper summarises an experimental and numerical study to design a bird strike- proof lightweight metallic Krueger flap as a high-lift device concept for a laminar wing leading edge of a single aisle short range aircraft. The whole design process was based on numerical optimisations for static load cases in combination with high velocity bird impact simulations, with the focus on accurate modelling of the fluid-like bird projectile, the plasticity of the aluminium material and the failure behaviour of the structural hinges and fastened joints. Finally, a full-scale Krueger flap prototype was manufactured and tested under bird impact loading, validating the numerical predictions and impact resistance. Keywords: Bird strike, impact simulation, aircraft Krueger flap, gas gun test. 1. Introduction Much research effort in aeronautics is currently dedicated to achieve a laminar flow wing for transport aircraft, which significantly reduces air drag and hence fuel consumption. Laminar flow requires the avoidance of any unevenness of the wing surface that could cause flow turbulences. Since aircraft wings need high-lift devices to increase lift during low speeds of flight, extendible slats are the most common leading edge high-lift devices, which involve a flow-disturbing step at their trailing edge (Fig.

  • Assembly Analysis – Fixed Leading Edge for Airbus A320
    Assembly Analysis – Fixed Leading Edge for Airbus A320 Nadim Bitar & Linus Gunnarsson Degree Project Department of Management and Engineering LIU-IEI-TEK-G--10/00165--SE i Abstract The objective with this thesis project was to with the simulations software Delmia make a working build philosophy for the new concept of the fixed leading edge for the Airbus A320 airliner, but also to make two conceptual fixtures in the modular framework BoxJoint for pre- drilling of two sub assemblies. Everything started with a study in Delmia to both recap on previous knowledge and to learn more about it. This was followed by early simulations on the new concepts that were provided by project partners. Then a study was made in the Affordable Reconfigurable tooling, ART-concept. A suggested build philosophy was created and possible areas for automation were identified. These areas were all the drilling and fettling operations except the drilling in the last stage where the pre-drilled holes are opened up. More investigations needs to be done to see if a robot can install and remove slave pins that are used in the last stage. Two conceptual designs on fixtures were created where one uses two industrial robots with vision systems to get the correct accuracy when drilling the product. The other was build to be able to use a Tau-Gantry robot solution together with a vision system. ii iii Sammanfattning Detta examensarbete gick ut på att med hjälp av simuleringsverktyget Delmia ta fram en byggordning för fixed leading edge på Airbus A320 samt göra koncept på fixturer i BoxJoint för förborrning av två delmontage.

  • Development of Advanced High Lift Leading Edge Technology for Laminar Flow Wings
    Development of Advanced High Lift Leading Edge Technology for Laminar Flow Wings Michelle M. Bright*, Andrea Korntheuer†, Steve Komadina‡ Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems, El Segundo, CA, 90245, USA John C. Lin§ NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA, 23681, USA Abstract This paper describes the Advanced High Lift Leading Edge (AHLLE) task performed by Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, Aerospace Systems (NGAS) for the NASA Subsonic Fixed Wing project in an effort to develop enabling high-lift technology for laminar flow wings. Based on a known laminar cruise airfoil that incorporated an NGAS- developed integrated slot design, this effort involved using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis and quality function deployment (QFD) analysis on several leading edge concepts, and subsequently down-selected to two blown leading-edge concepts for testing. A 7-foot-span AHLLE airfoil model was designed and fabricated at NGAS and then tested at the NGAS 7’ x 10’ Low Speed Wind Tunnel in Hawthorne, CA. The model configurations tested included: baseline, deflected trailing edge, blown deflected trailing edge, blown leading edge, morphed leading edge, and blown/morphed leading edge. A successful demonstration of high lift leading edge technology was achieved, and the target goals for improved lift were exceeded by 30% with a maximum section lift coefficient (Cl) of 5.2. Maximum incremental section lift coefficients (ΔCl) of 3.5 and 3.1 were achieved for a blown drooped (morphed) leading edge concept and a non-drooped leading edge blowing concept, respectively. The most effective AHLLE design yielded an estimated 94% lift improvement over the conventional high lift Krueger flap configurations while providing laminar flow capability on the cruise configuration.
