Enhancing Aircraft Performance Through Flight / Propulsion System Integration

Aircraft performance enhancement by integrating the propulsion control system with the primary flight control system is demonstrated through two nonlinear flight control design examples. In the first example, high performance aircraft turning performance improvement using engine thrust modulation is demonstrated. In the second example, the flight propulsion system integration is used to achieve...

Performance Simulation of Marine Slow-Speed Diesel Propulsion Engine With Turbocharger Under Aggravated Conditions

Original scientific paper The paper elaborates a mathematical model forming the basis for a computer-simulated model for a diesel propulsion engine. The model is applied in the analysis of steady and transient operating conditions of a turbocharged slow-speed diesel propulsion engine and a fixed blade propeller. Special attention has been paid to examining the stability and availability under a...

A Multiple Classifier System for Aircraft Engine Fault Diagnosis

Multiple classifier systems (MCS) are considered as one of the most significant advances in pattern classification in recent years. Numerous studies (both theoretical and empirical) have proved that MCS are effective in achieving improved classification performance for various application problems. Aircraft engine fault diagnosis plays a crucial rule in costeffective operation of aircraft engin...

Model-Based Diesel Engine Management System Optimization A Strategy for Transient Engine Operation

To meet increasingly strict emission legislation and stronger demands on fuel consumption, typical passenger car diesel engines become increasingly complex with more and more controllable systems added. These added systems open up for the possibility to operate the engine at more efficient conditions, but it also becomes more challenging to optimize the settings in the engine management system....
