Aiming at the problem of centroid deviation of aircraft carrying multiple fuel tanks under different fuel supply strategies, the time discretization, coordinate transformation and vector synthesis methods are used to obtain the centroid change curve, and the centroid change problem caused by the change of pitch attitude of the aircraft is studied. The Euclidean distance between the aircraft centroid and the ideal centroid is minimized as the objective function, and the optimization model is established. The fuel supply rate of each tank is obtained by particle swarm optimization algorithm, and the centroid optimization strategy is finally obtained. Simulation results show that the proposed strategy can effectively find the optimal fuel supply strategy for aircraft, which provides important reference value for aircraft design.

Abstract

Aiming at the problem of centroid deviation of aircraft carrying multiple fuel tanks under different fuel supply strategies, the time discretization, coordinate transformation and vector synthesis methods are used to obtain the centroid change curve, and the centroid change problem caused by the change of pitch attitude of the aircraft is studied. The Euclidean distance between the aircraft centroid and the ideal centroid is minimized as the objective function, and the optimization model is established. The fuel supply rate of each tank is obtained by particle swarm optimization algorithm, and the centroid optimization strategy is finally obtained. Simulation results show that the proposed strategy can effectively find the optimal fuel supply strategy for aircraft, which provides important reference value for aircraft design.
