Integrated Propulsion-based Flight Control System Design for a Civil Transport Aircraft

摘要: We describe results of a study carried out at the University Leicester in collaboration with Volvo Aero Corporation, on design integrated flight and propulsion control systems for large civil transport aircraft. The use aircraft engines (via differential thrust and/or vectoring) purposes emergency is examined detail. An industry standard modelling simulation tool (IFPClab), containing detailed model Boeing 747-100 aircraft, was developed using MATLAEVSJMULINK software environment. IFPClab has flexible, modular structure, which can easily be adapted to different engine configurations. Propulsion based systems, event partial or total failure traditional aerodynamic surfaces, are designed modem robust multivariable methods. Evaluation these non-linear simulations indicates that may effectively controlled only collective thrust. addition vectoring, however, seen significantly improve flying qualities achieved.
