In this work, we considered the problem of optimizing the crowd during aircraft delays before landing. Having examined the statistics, we can conclude that there was a constant increase in passenger traffic from 2013 to 2018. But also due to the constant growth of passenger traffic, the percentage of flights with delays is increasing. The problem is that that most of the flights accounted for a small percentage of the most "popular" airports (In Ukraine, 75 percent of all flights accounted for the airports of Boryspil and Zhuliany). Although since 2019 the number of air travel around the world has dropped sharply over time, the number of air travel will return to the previous number and even continue to grow. Also, a new problem has now arisen for air carriers - a significant increase in aviation fuel prices. According to the Mundi Index, since December 2021, there has been a constant increase in the price of fuel for aircraft. This is an additional incentive for airlines to optimize their routes in order to avoid unnecessary fuel costs. In this work, on the example of a flight for a Boeing 737 from Riga to Odessa, two parameters were considered, when changing which it is possible to minimize fuel costs during a delay. An algorithm was also developed to optimize crowd costs on flights with delays.
Delayed route fuel consumption optimization system
(National Aviation University, 2023-12-27) Nikulin, Artem; Нікулін, Артем Іванович
This thesis is devoted to the development and implementation of a system for estimating the remaining fuel during a landing delay, which is based on the use of a hydrostatic pressure sensor. The selected technical solution is aimed at increasing the accuracy and reliability of determining the amount of fuel in the tanks during various stages of the flight, especially in conditions of delayed landing. Over the past decade, the global aviation industry has been plagued with high and unpredictable aircraft fuel costs, becoming a burdensome factor for airlines and civil aviation enterprises. In the conditions of such a context, the improvement of the system of measurement and control of fuel residues with effective management of this strategic resource is ensured. The main service of this work is the development and implementation of a system that uses a hydrostatic pressure sensor to provide accurate and reliable data about the remaining fuel during a landing delay. Considering the current economic challenges in the aviation industry, this system is aimed at optimizing the costs of the aircraft fleet and ensuring a high level of flight safety. The thesis will consist of sections covering various aspects of the development and implementation of the residual fuel estimation system during landing delay. Analysis of literary sources, comparative analysis of existing systems, description of mathematical models and hardware, consideration of practical challenges and advantages of the system - these are only some aspects that will be reflected in the work. The results of the research will be created outside the boundaries of modern aviation technology and economics.
