Example - Aircraft Climb PerformanceControlling the Speed Profile• Very large capacity transport aircraft (http://128.173.204.63/courses/cee5614/cee5614_pub/AirbusA380_class.m)• The aircraft speed is controlled by the last three lines of data inthe aircraft data file• Line 1 (see below) defines the climb speed in knots (indicatedairspeed)• Line 2 defines the descent speed in knots (IAS)• Line 3 defines the altitudes at which each speed value is selected• For example: The aircraft below climbs at 210 knots just aftertakeoff (zero altitude) and reaches 250 knots at 4000 metersVirginia Tech - Air Transportation Systems Laboratory4
Example - Very Large Capacity AircraftData File• An aircraft similar in size and performance as the Airbus A380• Four turbofan engines each developing 34,400 kg (338,000 N)at sea level• Maximum takeoff mass is 540,000 kg. (1.188 million pounds)Airbus A380 taxies to the gate at LAX (A.A. Trani)Virginia Tech - Air Transportation Systems Laboratory5
