Information Analysis Of Modifications To Increase Fuel Efficiency In Regional Passenger Jets

摘要

Fuel efficiency is one of the most important parameters for the estimation of efficiency of passenger transport category airplanes. The level of fuel efficiency depends on some parameters. The objective of airline profitability depends directly on its aircraft operating economics and upon its compliance with international requirements for safety and ecology. This paper examines the fuel efficiency of a range of Russian, American and European passenger aircraft, and statistical data considering their era of design and production as well as the volume of their transport operations is presented and analyzed. It is shown that the improvement of fuel efficiency is crucial in their operation. Informational models for fuel efficiency for flight and hourly capacity are given. By using fuel efficiency parameters, analytical models based on a comparison of regional jets with passenger capacities of up to 110 people are solved, and, based on this research, some findings on their effectiveness are presented.
