                                       INTRODUCTION
The purpose of designing a new aircraft is the creation of a structure with unique
characteristics, which should be reliable, economical fulfilling the conditions of operation,
performance requirements and its primary goal should be attained. To perform the
preliminary design structure of the aircraft it is necessary to be knowledgeable in the field of
general arrangement of aircraft and helicopters, design of power units and systems,
construction of elements of assembly structures and units of the aircraft, aero
hydrodynamics, durability, technologies, material science, and economics. The purpose of
design is to develop a project, realization of which, being limited to a certain extent, would
ensure the most efficient reaching of the defined goals of the design.
In designing a new aircraft the following should be considered,
     fulfillment of targeted tasks
     stability and controllability of an aircraft on a specified trajectory
     control and navigation in various flight conditions
     life support
     Performance characteristics
     Characteristics of technological level of the serial aircraft and its economic efficiency
     The special equipment
     Standardization and unification level
     Requirements to reliability and maintenance system
     Power plant and its systems
     Perspective of development of the aircraft and its basic systems
    An aircraft is an element of the aviation complex, which seamlessly unites human and
material resources and carries out certain useful functions. The functional-structural diagram
of the aviation complex is shown on Figure. The aviation complex is an element of state
transport or defense system. All this defines necessity to use systematic approach to aircraft
design.
To implement the process of aircraft design, there was necessity to create specialized
development design offices, which include complicated laboratory and manufacturing
research. The activities of development design officers are based on work of branch-wise
research institutes, which research the prospects of aviation development in various
directions, and on experience of aircraft production and operation.
[10]




FOUR STAGES OF DESIGNING
  1) External designing: At this stage the research of complicated organization-technical
     systems including an aircraft or aircraft family as an element is carried out.
  2) The second stage — the development of a technical proposal: At this stage, the
     scheme is selected and optimal combination of basic aircraft parameters, composition
     and structure of systems ensuring fulfillment of required functions is determined.
  3) Third stage – front end engineering: In the process of design arrangement the
     aircraft center-of-gravity is specified. The calculation of center-of-gravity is followed
     by making weight reports on the basis of strength and weight calculations of airframe
     and power unit, lists of equipment, outfit, cargo etc.
  4) The fourth stage – working draft: The purpose of this stage is issuing all technical
     documentation required for production, assembly, mounting of separate units and
     systems and the whole aircraft as well. At this stage, on the basis of design-
     technological elaboration the drawings with general view of aircraft units, assembly
     and working-out drawings of separate parts of the aircraft.
         MAIN STAGES OF AIRCRAFT PROJECT DEVELOPMENT




AIRCRAFT DESIGN PROCESS
The aircraft design process is the steps by which aircraft are designed. These depend on
many factors such as customer and manufacturer demand, safety protocols, physical and
economic constraints etc. For some types of aircraft the design process is regulated by
national airworthiness authorities. This article deals with powered aircraft such as airplanes
and helicopter designs.
[11]


Aircraft design is a compromise between many competing factors and constraints and
accounts for existing designs and market requirements to produce the best aircraft.

DESIGN CONSTRAINTS IN DESIGNING PROCESS
A. Aircraft regulations
Another important factor that influences the design of the aircraft are the regulations put
forth by national aviation airworthiness authorities.
Airworthiness Certificates-An airworthiness certificate is an FAA document which grants
authorization to operate an aircraft in flight.
Standard Airworthiness Certificate-A standard airworthiness certificate (FAA form 8100-2
displayed in the aircraft) is the FAA's official authorization allowing for the operation of type
certificated aircraft in the following categories:
     Normal
     Utility
     Acrobatic
     Commuter
     Transport
     Manned free balloons
     Special classes
     FUNCTIONAL-STRUCTURAL CHART OF THE AVIATION COMPLEX




A standard airworthiness certificate remains valid as long as the aircraft meets its approved
type design, is in a condition for safe operation and maintenance, preventative maintenance,
and alterations are performed in accordance with 14 CFR parts 21, 43, and 91.
[12]


Airworthiness Certification Process-The FAA requires several basic steps to obtain an
airworthiness certificate in either the Standard or Special class.
The FAA may issue an applicant an airworthiness certificate when:

   o    Registered owner or operator/agent registers aircraft,
    o Applicant submits application (PDF) to the local FAA office, and
    o FAA determines the aircraft is eligible and in a condition for safe operation
A. Environmental factors
An increase in the number of aircraft also means greater carbon emissions. Environmental
scientists have voiced concern over the main kinds of pollution associated with aircraft,
mainly noise and emissions. Aircraft engines have been historically notorious for creating
noise pollution and the expansion of airways over already congested and polluted cities have
drawn heavy criticism, making it necessary to have environmental policies for aircraft noise.
Noise also arises from the airframe, where the airflow directions are changed. Improved
noise regulations have forced designers to create quieter engines and airframes. Emissions
from aircraft include particulates, carbon dioxide (CO2), Sulphur dioxide (SO2), Carbon
monoxide (CO), various oxides of nitrates and unburnt hydrocarbons. To combat the
pollution, ICAO set recommendations in 1981 to control aircraft emissions.[11] Newer,
environmentally friendly fuels have been developed and the use of recyclable materials in
manufacturing have helped reduce the ecological impact due to aircraft. Environmental
limitations also affect airfield compatibility. Airports around the world have been built to suit
the topography of the particular region. Space limitations, pavement design, runway end
safety areas and the unique location of airport are some of the airport factors that influence
aircraft design.
B. Safety
The high speeds, fuel tanks, atmospheric conditions at cruise altitudes, natural hazards
(thunderstorms, hail and bird strikes) and human error are some of the many hazards that
pose a threat to air travel. Airworthiness is the standard by which aircraft are determined fit
to fly.[19] The responsibility for airworthiness lies with national aviation regulatory bodies,
manufacturers, as well as owners and operators.
The International Civil Aviation Organization sets international standards and recommended
practices for national authorities to base their regulations on The national regulatory
authorities set standards for airworthiness, issue certificates to manufacturers and operators
and the standards of personnel training. Every country has its own regulatory body such as
the Federal Aviation Authority in USA, DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) in
India, etc.
[13]




C. Design optimization
Aircraft designers normally rough-out the initial design with consideration of all the
constraints on their design. Historically design teams used to be small, usually headed by a
Chief Designer who knew all the design requirements and objectives and coordinated the
team accordingly. As time progressed, the complexity of military and airline aircraft also
grew.
D. Design aspects
The main aspects of aircraft design are:
    1. Aerodynamics
    2. Propulsion
    3. Controls
    4. Mass
    5. Structure
All aircraft designs involve compromises of these factors to achieve the design mission.
E. Computer-aided design of aircraft
In the early years of aircraft design, designers generally used analytical theory to do the
various engineering calculations that go into the design process along with a lot of
experimentation. These calculations were labor intensive and time consuming. In the 1940s,
several engineers started looking for ways to automate and simplify the calculation process
and many relations and semi-empirical formulas were developed. Even after simplification,
the calculations continued to be extensive. With the invention of the computer, engineers
realized that a majority of the calculations could be done by computers, but the lack of
design visualization and the huge amount of experimentation involved kept the field of
aircraft design relatively stagnant in its progress.
F. Financial factors and market
Budget limitations, market requirements and competition set constraints on the design
process and comprise the non-technical influences on aircraft design along with
environmental factors. Competition leads to companies striving for better efficiency in the
design without compromising performance and incorporating new techniques and
technology.

Based on the tactical technical requirements and the general design specification of the
designing aircraft we are gathering the similar aircrafts and their detailed specification is
tabulated. From the critical parameters of the aircraft are listed. With the obtained results we
now ready to input all parameters in the software which would give all the relative masses
and some important parameters for further calculation.
Aircrafts data are gathered from various sources which include books, magazines, websites,
etc., Some of the missing parameters are found manually by calculations or it can be found
[20]


by scaling the three view picture of the collected aircraft. In obtaining the details it is
important to have the three view pictures of each aircraft for simplification further in drawing
the designed aircraft three view it is very helpful .A short brief of the aircraft is provided for
each of the aircraft with its variant and their three view picture.
Upon the four aircrafts selected we can take any one from that as a main prototype for further
simplification. I have selected the following aircrafts for comparison, 1.EMBRAER ERJ 145

BOMBARDIER CRJ100




The Bombardier CRJ100 and CRJ200 are a family of regional airliners manufactured by
Bombardier, and based on the Canadair Challenger business jet.

The CRJ100 was stretched 5.92 meters (19 feet 5 inches), with fuselage plugs fore and aft of
the wing, two more emergency exit doors, plus a reinforced and modified wing. Typical
seating was 50 passengers, the maximum load being 52 passengers. The CRJ100 featured a
Collins ProLine 4 avionics suite, Collins weather radar, GE CF34-3A1 turbofans with
41.0 kN (4,180 kgp / 9,220 lbf), new wings with extended span, more fuel capacity, and
[22]


improved landing gear to handle the higher weights. It was followed by the CRJ100 ER
subvariant with 20% more range, and the CRJ100 LR subvariant with 40% more range than
the standard CRJ100. The CRJ 100 SE sub-variant was produced to more closely meet the
needs of corporate and executive operators.
Variants
Several models of the CRJ have been produced, ranging in capacity from 40 to 50
passengers. The Regional Jet designations are marketing names and the official designation
is CL-600-2B19.
CRJ100 -The CRJ100 is the original 50-seat version. It is equipped with General Electric
CF34-3A1 engines. Operators include Jazz Aviation, Comair and more.
CRJ200 -The CRJ200 is identical to the CRJ100 except for its engines, which were upgraded
to the CF34-3B1 model, offering improved efficiency.
CRJ440 -Certified up to 44-seat, this version was designed with fewer seats in order to meet
the needs of some major United States airlines.
Challenger 800/850 - A business jet variant of the CRJ200




TUPOLEV 134-A
[23]


The Tupolev Tu-134 (NATO reporting name: Crusty) is a twin-engined airliner, similar to
the French Sud Aviation Caravelle and the later-designed American Douglas DC-9, and built
in the Soviet Union from 1966–1984. The original version featured a glazed-nose design and,
like certain other Russian airliners (including its sister model the Tu-154), it can operate
from unpaved airfields.

Design and development

Following the introduction of engines mounted on pylons on the rear fuselage by the French
Sud Aviation Caravelle, airliner manufacturers around the world rushed to adopt the new
layout. Its advantages included clean wing airflow without disruption by nacelles or pylons
and decreased cabin noise. At the same time, placing heavy engines that far back created
challenges with the location of the center of gravity in relation to the center of lift, which was
at the wings. To make room for the engines, the tailplanes had to be relocated to the tail fin,
which had to be stronger and therefore heavier, further compounding the tail-heavy
arrangement.

Variants
Tu-134        The glass nosed version. The first series could seat up to 64 passengers, and
              this was later increased to 72 passengers. The original designation was Tu-
              124A.
Tu-134A       Second series, with upgraded engines, improved avionics, seating up to 84
              passengers. All Tu-134A variants have been built with the distinct glass nose
              and chin radar dome, but some were modified to the B standard with the radar
              moved to the nose radome.
Tu-134B       Second series, 80 seats, radar moved to the nose radome, eliminating the
              glazed nose. Some Tu-134B models have long-range fuel tanks fitted under the
              fuselage; these are visible as a sizeable bulge.
Tu-           Bomber aircrew training version.
134UBL
Tu134UBK Naval version of Tu-134UBL. Only one was ever built.

BOEING 717-200
Boeing 717 was specifically designed for the short-haul, high frequency 100-passenger
airline market. The highly efficient 717 concluded its production run in May 2006, though
the airplane will remain in service for years to come.
Final assembly of the 717 took place at the Boeing plant in Long Beach, Calif. The airplane
was originally part of the McDonnell Douglas airplane family and designated the MD-95
[24]


prior to merger with The Boeing Co. in 1997. The program produced 156 717s and pioneered
breakthrough business and manufacturing process for Boeing Commercial Airplanes




                                                                                        The
.
The standard 717 has a two-class configuration with 106 seats. Its passenger-pleasing interior
features a five-across-seating arrangement in economy class, with illuminated handrails and
large overhead stow bins.
The two-crew flight deck incorporates six interchangeable liquid-crystal-display units and
advanced Honeywell VIA 2000 computers.
Flight deck features include an Electronic Instrument System, a dual Flight Management
System, a Central Fault Display System, and Global Positioning System. Category IIIb
automatic landing capability for bad-weather operations and Future Air Navigation Systems
are available.
Two advanced Rolls-Royce 715 high-bypass-ratio engines power the 717. The engine is
rated at 18,500 to 21,000 pounds of takeoff thrust, with lower fuel consumption and
significantly lower noise and emission levels than the power plants on comparable airplanes.
DESIGN
The 717 features a two-crew cockpit that incorporates six interchangeable liquid-crystal-
display units and advanced Honeywell VIA 2000 computers. The cockpit design is called
Advanced Common Flight deck (ACF) and is shared with the MD-11.

CALCULATION OF AIRCRAFT MASSES THROUGH THE SOFTWARE AND ITS
RESULTS

Aircraft masses in zero approximation are calculated using software by entering necessary
parameters taken from statistical data and the initial parameters. First the relative masses for
fuselage, wing, power plant, tail unit, fuel and landing gear are found with respect to the
aspect ratio of wing taken as 4 and aircrafts wing loading attained from graphical result as
600 N/m2. The graphs obtained from this result help us to select the desired wing loading and
from the wing the lowest value of takeoff mass is taken as the final one. The relative masses
are changed to direct masses by multiplying it with the finally obtained take-off mass, for me
it is 39.11tons. Therefore my relative masses are multiplied with 39.11 ton to get direct mass

Graphs for each lab are plotted versus each parameter and from that the final wing loading is
obtained followed by the takeoff mass. Other parameters obtained include engine
performance data like thrust to weight ratio at take-off, climbing and cruise. My main
comparative parameter is Aspect ratio which I took in three variations as

               AIRCRAFT OPTIMIZATION AND DESIGN PARAMETERS
Geometrical parameters for designed aircraft are calculated by formulas taken from pilot
project book and rest is determined statistically by comparing with the prototypes. After
calculating the geometrical parameters we are drawing the theoretical drawing. The
geometrical parameters are calculated and obtained satisfying the general requirements of the
aircraft.
The stages of aircraft optimization include the following:
     Determination of Wing Parameters
     Determination of Fuselage Parameters
     Determination of Tail Unit Parameters
     Determination of Position of Center of Mass of the Airplane
     Determination of Landing gear parameters
Determination of Wing Parameters:
In determining Wing parameters its plan form shape is very important in obtaining number of
useful relations that apply to a trapezoidal shape. These are based on knowing the wing area,
aspect ratio, taper ratio, and leading-edge sweep angle.
Before finding the wing area it is necessary to determine the wing loading corresponding to
take off mass of 39110kg, which is found in LAB 9 as given below,
[37]




RESULT: The wing loading is found to be 600 daN/m2

DETERMINATION OF LANDING GEAR PARAMETERS
For nose-wheel tri-cycle landing gear the following parameters are considered


Wheel base (b ) : distance between axels of nose wheel and main landing gear wheels in
side view. It depends on fuselage length.
b  (0.30.5)l fus,
b = 0.48 * 30.62 = 14.6976m

Nose wheel offset (a ) : It is distance between vertical line passing through the airplane center
of gravity and nose wheel axis (or axis of several wheels whenever);
a = 0.968 * 14.697 = 14.235m
[42]


Main Landing Gear offset (e) : It is distance (on side view) between vertical line passing
through the airplane center of gravity and axis (or center line of several wheels, bogie) of
MLG;
e = 0.031 * 14.697 = 0.462m

Static ground angle() : It is the angle between fuselage construction plane and runway
surface. It is generally between
2 to +2. So it is taken as
1.

Angle of wing setting sett : It is the angle formed between wing construction plane to the
fuselage axis. It is generally between sett  (04). So it is taken be 2.

Angle of overturning(): It is the angle appearing when fuselage tail part or its tail bump
touches the runway surface;
Ψ=2                    parking angle
amax = 12              maximum angle of attack
aw = -1                 angle between a wing chord and longitudinal axis of fuselage.
Ф       = amax –(-1) – 2 = 12+1-2 = 11
As a rule  = 1018, smaller values are accepted for non-maneuverable subsonic aircraft.

Offset angle(): It is the angle of offset for wheels of MLG relatively to airplane CG.It
prevents airplane overturning backward during landing.
 =  + (12).
 =11+ 2 = 13.
Wheel track(В ) : It is the distance (on front view) between planes of symmetry of MLG
wheels. This can be found by
B  ( 0 . 15 .... 0 . 35 ) LW
B  0 . 21  22 . 39  4 . 7 m


Height of airplane center of gravity(Н): It is the distance from airplane CG to the ground.
H=
H= 0.462 / tan (13)
H= 2.1 m

Height of the landing gear (h): Distance from leg attachment fittings to the runway surface
when shock absorber and tiers compression is of parking state (at take-off mass).
DF    = 2.5 m
 h    =H – DF/2
h     = 2.1 – (2.5/2)
[43]


h           = 0.85 m

Determination of Position of Center of Mass of the Airplane

Position of the airplane center of mass is determined relative to nose part of the wing mean
aerodynamic chord (MAC).
The recommended distance for the center of mass from the nose part of mean aerodynamic
chord x m as follows:
For airplanes with swept wing:
x m  0 . 23  b A  0 . 23  3 . 15  0 . 7245 ( m )
Determination of tail arms
Vertical tail unit arm:
It is the distance measured from the aircraft center of massup to the vertical tail unit centre of
pressure. It is selected statistically , Tvs = 12m. For T-Tail Tvs is not equal to Ths.
Horizontal tail unit arm :
It is the distance measured from the aircraft center of mass up to the horizontal tail unit
centre of pressure. Horizontal tail unit arm is obtained after drawing theoretical diagram.

         SELECTION AND GROUNDS OF AIRCRAFT CONFIGURATION

AERODYNAMIC CONFIGURATION
The ―normal" classical configuration applies to my aircraft. The advantages of this
configuration are:
     wing is in the pure, undisturbed airflow and is not shadowed by stabilizers;
     nose section of a fuselage is short and does not create destabilizing moment
        relatively to the vertical axis; this allows to reduce area and mass of vertical
        stabilizer;
     Crew has better observation of the front semi-sphere.




Selection of wing position relatively to the fuselage

Low-wing aircraft. Advantages:
   due to ground shield effect (aerodrome surface) Ycr increases, Vto, Vland; decreases
   height of the landing gear struts and their mass is less, their retraction becomes
     simpler;
   high-lift devices can also be located on ventral wing parts;
   Safety of passengers and crew increases during emergency landing – the wing
     provides additional protection;
   Floating capacities during emergency landing on water are higher, that allows to
     evacuate passengers and crew.
[48]


SELECTION OF WING EXTERIOR SHAPE

Swept wings are applied at M = 0,82.With increase of sweep angle:

    the shockwave drag on moderate subsonic and supersonic speeds (Fig. 2.6) is
     drastically decreased.
                             2
       M cr  Ì   cr   0
                        1  cos  is increased.
    Critical values of flutter speed Vfl increase, divergence speed Vdiv (at swept wings),
     lateral stability increases.




WING SHAPE ON FRONT VIEW

It is characterized by wing dihedral angle
        Dihedral angle is defined by  angle between wing chords plane and plane
perpendicular to aircraft of symmetry plane passing through the inboard chord. The
following types are distinguished:
At = 0+7 dihedral angle (for straight wings)
[49]




SHAPES OF WING CROSS-SECTIONS AND TAIL UNIT STABILIZER CROSS
SECTION

Double convex asymmetrical - high Cy max, smaller Cxр, stable position of the centre of
pressure. These airfoils find wide application in various subsonic aircraft;
The airfoil should have low profile drag in a range of Cy factors characteristic for cruise
flight;

    It is necessary that the airfoil with the extended flap has small Cxp at Cmax, especially
     during climb;
    Tip wing cross-sections at Cmax should have smooth performances of shock stall;
    Internal wing cross-sections should have high values of Cmax with extended flaps;
    It is necessary to ensure a high value of Mcr above 0,65;


Airfoils for my aircraft are selected as mentioned below

The NACA four-digit wing sections define the profile by

   1. One digit describing maximum camber as percentage of the chord.
   2. One digit describing the distance of maximum camber from the airfoil leading edge in
      tens of percent's of the chord.
   3. Two digits describing maximum thickness of the airfoil as percent of the chord.

WING AIRFOIL - NACA 2415 airfoil has a maximum camber of 2% located 40% (0.4
chords) from the leading edge with a maximum thickness of 15% of the chord. Four-digit
series airfoils by default have maximum thickness at 30% of the chord (0.3 chords) from the
leading edge.
[50]




HORIZONTAL STABILIZER AIRFOIL - NACA 2412 airfoil has a maximum camber of
2% located 40% (0.4 chords) from the leading edge with a maximum thickness of 12% of the
chord. Four-digit series airfoils by default have maximum thickness at 30% of the chord (0.3
chords) from the leading edge.




Selection of the scheme of ailerons



       b ail  b ail / b  0 ,25  0 ,3 ;  ail .upw  20  25  ; S ail  S ail / S  0 ,03  0 ,08 ;
                      L ail  L ail / L  0 ,2  0 ,4 ;  ail .downw  10  15  .

Requirements to ailerons:
 Minimum yawing moment (an aircraft yaw motion relatively to OY axis) in bank, with
   aircraft turning in the side of bank angle.
 Full weight balancing with least weight of balance weights.
 Provision of efficiency on all flight phases.
[51]


 Critical speed of reverse thrust should be sufficient.

SELECTION OF FUSELAGE STRUCTURE

The basic geometrical sizes of the fuselage are selected statistically by comparing the
prototypes and are listed below
Lf – length of a fuselage;                     30.62m
Df – diameter of the greatest mid-section,     2.5m
Smcs – the area of fuselage mid-section;
Lns, length of nose section of a fuselage.     3.75m
Lts – tail section of a fuselage.              6.25m
n.f – Fitness ratio of fuselage nose section –          1.5

t.f – Fitness ratio of tail section –                   2.5




                                           NOSE SECTION




                                          TAIL SECTION
       Shapes of nose and tail sections are also determined generally from conditions of
aerodynamics, layout, technology, purpose. For the nose section, an important condition is
ensuring the demanded observation from the cockpit that leads to smaller fineness and
smaller sharpness. It is reasonable to deflect the tail section of a fuselage upwards to ensure
[52]


the landing angle  during take-off. Many cargo aircraft have a large door in the tail section
with the cargo ramp lowered on ground for loading and an unloading of cargos. For modern
aircraft, for aerodynamic drag decrease considerations, the whole tail section is lengthened
and bended. Some cargo aircraft have the cargo door in the fuselage nose (An-124, C-5А,
Boeing 747F). The lower part is capable to open back and upwards that simplifies loading
and unloading of transported vehicles and cargos.

The point of reference of the tail section is located at distance of l f.ns+l f.ts from a fuselage
nose. Coordinates of Yf.ns and Yf.ts axis are turned counter-clockwise on n.f and t.f angles. If
m and n are selected equal to 0,5 of the contours are usual quadratic parabolas. If smaller
values of m and n are selected, shapes of nose and tail sections will be fuller, if greater values
are selected, the shapes will be more concentrated.


SELECTION OF STABILIZERS STRUCTURE
T-shaped stabilizers: HS is placed off the zone of wing wash on all flight phases,VS is
loaded additionally, its mass is increased

  • 10. [9] INTRODUCTION The purpose of designing a new aircraft is the creation of a structure with unique characteristics, which should be reliable, economical fulfilling the conditions of operation, performance requirements and its primary goal should be attained. To perform the preliminary design structure of the aircraft it is necessary to be knowledgeable in the field of general arrangement of aircraft and helicopters, design of power units and systems, construction of elements of assembly structures and units of the aircraft, aero hydrodynamics, durability, technologies, material science, and economics. The purpose of design is to develop a project, realization of which, being limited to a certain extent, would ensure the most efficient reaching of the defined goals of the design. In designing a new aircraft the following should be considered,  fulfillment of targeted tasks  stability and controllability of an aircraft on a specified trajectory  control and navigation in various flight conditions  life support  Performance characteristics  Characteristics of technological level of the serial aircraft and its economic efficiency  The special equipment  Standardization and unification level  Requirements to reliability and maintenance system  Power plant and its systems  Perspective of development of the aircraft and its basic systems An aircraft is an element of the aviation complex, which seamlessly unites human and material resources and carries out certain useful functions. The functional-structural diagram of the aviation complex is shown on Figure. The aviation complex is an element of state transport or defense system. All this defines necessity to use systematic approach to aircraft design. To implement the process of aircraft design, there was necessity to create specialized development design offices, which include complicated laboratory and manufacturing research. The activities of development design officers are based on work of branch-wise research institutes, which research the prospects of aviation development in various directions, and on experience of aircraft production and operation.
  • 11. [10] FOUR STAGES OF DESIGNING 1) External designing: At this stage the research of complicated organization-technical systems including an aircraft or aircraft family as an element is carried out. 2) The second stage — the development of a technical proposal: At this stage, the scheme is selected and optimal combination of basic aircraft parameters, composition and structure of systems ensuring fulfillment of required functions is determined. 3) Third stage – front end engineering: In the process of design arrangement the aircraft center-of-gravity is specified. The calculation of center-of-gravity is followed by making weight reports on the basis of strength and weight calculations of airframe and power unit, lists of equipment, outfit, cargo etc. 4) The fourth stage – working draft: The purpose of this stage is issuing all technical documentation required for production, assembly, mounting of separate units and systems and the whole aircraft as well. At this stage, on the basis of design- technological elaboration the drawings with general view of aircraft units, assembly and working-out drawings of separate parts of the aircraft. MAIN STAGES OF AIRCRAFT PROJECT DEVELOPMENT AIRCRAFT DESIGN PROCESS The aircraft design process is the steps by which aircraft are designed. These depend on many factors such as customer and manufacturer demand, safety protocols, physical and economic constraints etc. For some types of aircraft the design process is regulated by national airworthiness authorities. This article deals with powered aircraft such as airplanes and helicopter designs.
  • 12. [11] Aircraft design is a compromise between many competing factors and constraints and accounts for existing designs and market requirements to produce the best aircraft. DESIGN CONSTRAINTS IN DESIGNING PROCESS A. Aircraft regulations Another important factor that influences the design of the aircraft are the regulations put forth by national aviation airworthiness authorities. Airworthiness Certificates-An airworthiness certificate is an FAA document which grants authorization to operate an aircraft in flight. Standard Airworthiness Certificate-A standard airworthiness certificate (FAA form 8100-2 displayed in the aircraft) is the FAA's official authorization allowing for the operation of type certificated aircraft in the following categories:  Normal  Utility  Acrobatic  Commuter  Transport  Manned free balloons  Special classes FUNCTIONAL-STRUCTURAL CHART OF THE AVIATION COMPLEX A standard airworthiness certificate remains valid as long as the aircraft meets its approved type design, is in a condition for safe operation and maintenance, preventative maintenance, and alterations are performed in accordance with 14 CFR parts 21, 43, and 91.
  • 13. [12] Airworthiness Certification Process-The FAA requires several basic steps to obtain an airworthiness certificate in either the Standard or Special class. The FAA may issue an applicant an airworthiness certificate when: o Registered owner or operator/agent registers aircraft, o Applicant submits application (PDF) to the local FAA office, and o FAA determines the aircraft is eligible and in a condition for safe operation A. Environmental factors An increase in the number of aircraft also means greater carbon emissions. Environmental scientists have voiced concern over the main kinds of pollution associated with aircraft, mainly noise and emissions. Aircraft engines have been historically notorious for creating noise pollution and the expansion of airways over already congested and polluted cities have drawn heavy criticism, making it necessary to have environmental policies for aircraft noise. Noise also arises from the airframe, where the airflow directions are changed. Improved noise regulations have forced designers to create quieter engines and airframes. Emissions from aircraft include particulates, carbon dioxide (CO2), Sulphur dioxide (SO2), Carbon monoxide (CO), various oxides of nitrates and unburnt hydrocarbons. To combat the pollution, ICAO set recommendations in 1981 to control aircraft emissions.[11] Newer, environmentally friendly fuels have been developed and the use of recyclable materials in manufacturing have helped reduce the ecological impact due to aircraft. Environmental limitations also affect airfield compatibility. Airports around the world have been built to suit the topography of the particular region. Space limitations, pavement design, runway end safety areas and the unique location of airport are some of the airport factors that influence aircraft design. B. Safety The high speeds, fuel tanks, atmospheric conditions at cruise altitudes, natural hazards (thunderstorms, hail and bird strikes) and human error are some of the many hazards that pose a threat to air travel. Airworthiness is the standard by which aircraft are determined fit to fly.[19] The responsibility for airworthiness lies with national aviation regulatory bodies, manufacturers, as well as owners and operators. The International Civil Aviation Organization sets international standards and recommended practices for national authorities to base their regulations on The national regulatory authorities set standards for airworthiness, issue certificates to manufacturers and operators and the standards of personnel training. Every country has its own regulatory body such as the Federal Aviation Authority in USA, DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) in India, etc.
  • 14. [13] C. Design optimization Aircraft designers normally rough-out the initial design with consideration of all the constraints on their design. Historically design teams used to be small, usually headed by a Chief Designer who knew all the design requirements and objectives and coordinated the team accordingly. As time progressed, the complexity of military and airline aircraft also grew. D. Design aspects The main aspects of aircraft design are: 1. Aerodynamics 2. Propulsion 3. Controls 4. Mass 5. Structure All aircraft designs involve compromises of these factors to achieve the design mission. E. Computer-aided design of aircraft In the early years of aircraft design, designers generally used analytical theory to do the various engineering calculations that go into the design process along with a lot of experimentation. These calculations were labor intensive and time consuming. In the 1940s, several engineers started looking for ways to automate and simplify the calculation process and many relations and semi-empirical formulas were developed. Even after simplification, the calculations continued to be extensive. With the invention of the computer, engineers realized that a majority of the calculations could be done by computers, but the lack of design visualization and the huge amount of experimentation involved kept the field of aircraft design relatively stagnant in its progress. F. Financial factors and market Budget limitations, market requirements and competition set constraints on the design process and comprise the non-technical influences on aircraft design along with environmental factors. Competition leads to companies striving for better efficiency in the design without compromising performance and incorporating new techniques and technology.

  • 24. [23] The Tupolev Tu-134 (NATO reporting name: Crusty) is a twin-engined airliner, similar to the French Sud Aviation Caravelle and the later-designed American Douglas DC-9, and built in the Soviet Union from 1966–1984. The original version featured a glazed-nose design and, like certain other Russian airliners (including its sister model the Tu-154), it can operate from unpaved airfields. Design and development Following the introduction of engines mounted on pylons on the rear fuselage by the French Sud Aviation Caravelle, airliner manufacturers around the world rushed to adopt the new layout. Its advantages included clean wing airflow without disruption by nacelles or pylons and decreased cabin noise. At the same time, placing heavy engines that far back created challenges with the location of the center of gravity in relation to the center of lift, which was at the wings. To make room for the engines, the tailplanes had to be relocated to the tail fin, which had to be stronger and therefore heavier, further compounding the tail-heavy arrangement. Variants Tu-134 The glass nosed version. The first series could seat up to 64 passengers, and this was later increased to 72 passengers. The original designation was Tu- 124A. Tu-134A Second series, with upgraded engines, improved avionics, seating up to 84 passengers. All Tu-134A variants have been built with the distinct glass nose and chin radar dome, but some were modified to the B standard with the radar moved to the nose radome.

  • 30. [29] CALCULATION OF AIRCRAFT MASSES THROUGH THE SOFTWARE AND ITS RESULTS Aircraft masses in zero approximation are calculated using software by entering necessary parameters taken from statistical data and the initial parameters. First the relative masses for fuselage, wing, power plant, tail unit, fuel and landing gear are found with respect to the aspect ratio of wing taken as 4 and aircrafts wing loading attained from graphical result as 600 N/m2. The graphs obtained from this result help us to select the desired wing loading and from the wing the lowest value of takeoff mass is taken as the final one. The relative masses are changed to direct masses by multiplying it with the finally obtained take-off mass, for me it is 39.11tons. Therefore my relative masses are multiplied with 39.11 ton to get direct mass Graphs for each lab are plotted versus each parameter and from that the final wing loading is obtained followed by the takeoff mass. Other parameters obtained include engine performance data like thrust to weight ratio at take-off, climbing and cruise.

  • 48. [47] SELECTION AND GROUNDS OF AIRCRAFT CONFIGURATION AERODYNAMIC CONFIGURATION The ―normal" classical configuration applies to my aircraft. The advantages of this configuration are:  wing is in the pure, undisturbed airflow and is not shadowed by stabilizers;  nose section of a fuselage is short and does not create destabilizing moment relatively to the vertical axis; this allows to reduce area and mass of vertical stabilizer;  Crew has better observation of the front semi-sphere. Selection of wing position relatively to the fuselage Low-wing aircraft. Advantages:  due to ground shield effect (aerodrome surface) Ycr increases, Vto, Vland; decreases  height of the landing gear struts and their mass is less, their retraction becomes simpler;  high-lift devices can also be located on ventral wing parts;  Safety of passengers and crew increases during emergency landing – the wing provides additional protection;  Floating capacities during emergency landing on water are higher, that allows to evacuate passengers and crew.

WING SHAPE ON FRONT VIEW It is characterized by wing dihedral angle Dihedral angle is defined by  angle between wing chords plane and plane perpendicular to aircraft of symmetry plane passing through the inboard chord.

These airfoils find wide application in various subsonic aircraft; The airfoil should have low profile drag in a range of Cy factors characteristic for cruise flight;  It is necessary that the airfoil with the extended flap has small Cxp at Cmax, especially during climb;  Tip wing cross-sections at Cmax should have smooth performances of shock stall;  Internal wing cross-sections should have high values of Cmax with extended flaps;  It is necessary to ensure a high value of Mcr above 0,65; Airfoils for my aircraft are selected as mentioned below The NACA four-digit wing sections define the profile by 1. One digit describing maximum camber as percentage of the chord. 2. One digit describing the distance of maximum camber from the airfoil leading edge in tens of percent's of the chord. 3. Two digits describing maximum thickness of the airfoil as percent of the chord. WING AIRFOIL - NACA 2415 airfoil has a maximum camber of 2% located 40% (0.4 chords) from the leading edge with a maximum thickness of 15% of the chord. Four-digit series airfoils by default have maximum thickness at 30% of the chord (0.3 chords) from the leading edge.

SELECTION OF FUSELAGE STRUCTURE The basic geometrical sizes of the fuselage are selected statistically by comparing the prototypes and are listed below Lf – length of a fuselage; 30.62m Df – diameter of the greatest mid-section, 2.5m Smcs – the area of fuselage mid-section; Lns, length of nose section of a fuselage. 3.75m Lts – tail section of a fuselage. 6.25m n.f – Fitness ratio of fuselage nose section – 1.5 t.f – Fitness ratio of tail section – 2.5 NOSE SECTION TAIL SECTION Shapes of nose and tail sections are also determined generally from conditions of aerodynamics, layout, technology, purpose. For the nose section, an important condition is ensuring the demanded observation from the cockpit that leads to smaller fineness and smaller sharpness. It is reasonable to deflect the tail section of a fuselage upwards to ensure
  • 53. [52] the landing angle  during take-off. Many cargo aircraft have a large door in the tail section with the cargo ramp lowered on ground for loading and an unloading of cargos. For modern aircraft, for aerodynamic drag decrease considerations, the whole tail section is lengthened and bended. Some cargo aircraft have the cargo door in the fuselage nose (An-124, C-5А, Boeing 747F). The lower part is capable to open back and upwards that simplifies loading and unloading of transported vehicles and cargos. CONTOURS OF FUSELAGE NOSE & TAIL SECTION Yn.f =  a (Хn.fdn.f/4n.f) m .
