A Two-Point Approximation Approach to Determining Aircraft Aerodynamic Force Coefficients for a Maximal-Duration Horizontal Flight
Abstract
This paper proposes a two-point approximation approach to determining aircraft aerodynamic force coefficients, and compares it to the traditional methods. A variational concept is used to conduct aircraft flight trials for the maximal duration of quasi-horizontal flights. The advantages of the described optimization theories are demonstrated, in terms of aviation fuel gas savings. The results of a numerical example are presented.
