In order to automate the ground maneuvering of a civil regional aircraft and improve the efficiency of the air transport system, a fly-by-wire nose wheel steering system (NWSS) was designed. A rack and pinion steering mechanism integrated with a single actuator mechanism was proposed. The basic control circuit diagram with integrated test, the electro-hydraulic system diagram, and the mathematical model of the steering system were established and analyzed. A co-simulation model of the system was built to verify the control law. The results show that the properties of the prototype meet the design requirements. Given the importance of the NWSS, the simulation results can be used to optimize the basic design parameters. This methodology can also be used for other types of aircraft.

ABSTRACTThe Goal-Oriented methodology (GO methodology) is an effective method for the reliability analysis of complex systems. It is especially suitable for the reliability analysis of multi-state complex systems containing the actual logistics, such as current, airflow and liquid flow. In order to solve the limitation that the GO methodology is not suitable for the reliability analysis of the system with feedback loop, the Boolean algebra idea is introduced to construct the Boolean operation formula of the feedback loop. In this paper, a certain type of civil aircraft flap hydraulic system with feedback loop is taken as the research object. According to the structural schematic diagram of the flap hydraulic system, the GO model of the flap hydraulic system is established. Next, the GO calculation is carried out to obtain the reliability of the flap hydraulic system. The comparison between the system reliability without feedback loop and that with feedback loop proves that the GO methodology with feedback loop is more accurate. The reliability of the system is analyzed by using the fault tree analysis (FTA) method, and the GO methodology with feedback loop is compared with the FTA method to verify the availability and correctness of the GO methodology in the reliability analysis and safety evaluation of aircraft flap hydraulic system.

Addressing the growing severe heat-generation and temperature-rise issues of the civil aircraft hydraulic system, this paper proposes a thermal dynamic model and thermal management strategies for the system within full mission profile. Firstly, a new thermal dynamic modeling towards general hydraulic components is conducted. Secondly, thermal dynamic governing equations are derived. Then a thermal management mechanism of the system is proposed. The conducted research is prerequisite to future numerical simulation of the thermal dynamic characteristics, evaluation and improvement of thermal management strategies for the system.

Abstract For the evaluation of civil aircraft hydraulic system, Fuel Consumption is a very important index. However, there is no effective method to perform analysis for different architecture. This paper proposes that taking fuel weight penalty as a major mathmatical modeling method to analysis traditional architecture and more electric architecture. The result shows that the fuel consumption of more electric architecture is less than traditional architecture.

Developments in the design and proposed operation of large civil aircraft have resulted in aircraft manufacturers and equipment suppliers developing new system concepts, one of which is the all or more electric aircraft. In the all or more electric aircraft the distribution of power for flight actuation will be through the electrical system, as opposed to the currently used bulk hydraulic system. In order to implement power-by-wire, high-performance electrically powered actuators will be required. The paper discusses the design details, and the simulation of an electrohydrostatic actuator suitable for use in primary flight control systems of a civil aircraft. The paper presents experimental and simulation results, and identifies the parameters that will critically affect the performance of an actuator.
