چکیده

Fuel transfers are used in aircrafts for the control of the COG position. This is essential for stability and operational performance. This paper deals with the modelling and simulation of the fuel transfers in a generic airplane. The model is established using Simulink, for an easy adaptation to specific airplane cases. Simulations are useful to study COG control strategies, and operational reactions to certain contingencies. The paper focus on the COG control in the aeronautical technical context, keeping it inside a region of interest. Key-Words: Avionics, Aircraft Fuel System, Fuel Distribution Control, Aircraft stability, CoG Control
