Fuel Management System for Cruise Performance Optimisation on a large Blended Wing Body Airliner
Original language description
Blended Wing Body (BWB) aircraft configurations have been proposed for significant fuel efficiency improvement on commercial transport. In order to fly with the optimum lift to drag ratio throughout most of the mission an adaptation of the centre of gravity (CG) by fuel redistribution is proposed in this paper. The most aft location of the CG which still is controllable is mainly limited by actuator bandwidth whereas the front CG location is limited by control authority of the trailing edge control surfaces. This paper provides an optimization of the CG position with regards to minimization of fuel consumption. Layout of the fuel tank system is illustrated. Moreover, active stabilisation of faulty CG positions is discussed.
