Abstract
This
book is intended to explain the purposes and general structures of the main
members and systems of airplanes, to analyze the characteristics and the
structural features of aircrafts, with accordance to airworthiness
requirements. Also it is intended to describe the methodology for the designing
and modifying of aircrafts, their units and systems, assembly units, with
accordance to the requirements of airworthiness regulations. And it is intended
to describe the purpose, layout and principal diagrams, operation and basic
parameters, structure of assemblies and elements of systems of aircraft power
plants with accordance to airworthiness. The emphasis is put on the operation
of systems of aircraft power plants.
It
is shown that the classification of aircraft by aerodynamic configuration, a
main units structure (as wing, fuselage, tail unit, landing gear, etc.),
general requirements to the units, the airworthiness requirements to units, the
geometrical parameters of the units, advantages and disadvantages of different
units configurations, load carry structures of units, structural members of
units, etc.. And it is shown that the functionality, design features,
arrangement, operational principles, methods of equipment design of aircraft
power plant systems, which meet both general and specific requirements. The
operation,structure design of aircraft power plant systems (engine selection,
engine mount, systems: fuel, lubrication, air ingestion, exhaust, protection, electro
mechanical, etc.) are presented in interaction with other components and
systems of airplane.
This
book will be suitable for students majoring in airworthiness, designers,
manufacturing engineers, etc.
Aviation is a complex
engineering industry. Efficiency of aircraft is highly sensitive to many
factors. Among them are safety, flight performance, design perfection,
suitability for production in given conditions, etc..
But the safety of aircraft
operation is the most important factor, on which its success largely depends.
Today, aviation is the safest type of transport, which is confirmed by the
multi year statistics.
Why can we make such
achievements? Firstly, because of the tightening of safety rules in all areas
of the aviation industry: from designing to logistic of passenger traffic at an
airport. Secondly,the improvement of engineering technology:designing,manufacturing,
operation,etc.. Thirdly, by improving structural materials. Fourthly, by
improving the quality of training of aviation specialists: flight crews, ground
staff, designers, technologists and others.
As is known, a significant
volume of events, which are the cause of crashes, is the human factor.
Therefore, improved approaches to training of aviation specialists is an
important and actual task.
This book is intended for
engineers to gain knowledge of civil aviation about aircraft structure, design
principles of an aircraft in general and power plant systems in particular. It
will also be useful for all specialists of the aviation industry,concerning the
relationship of project parameters of aircraft in terms of their
implementation, and ways to link operational characteristics of the aircraft
with the principles of rational designing.
The aeronautical engineering
is designed according to the requirements of the airworthiness standards for
students to learn the principle applications.It is this combination that allows
to achieve high efficiency of aviation technology with a high level of its
safety.
