Abstract

The method for determining the main parameters of the tail cargo doors of transport category aircraft is developed. There have been prepared initial data and described the methodology for finding them. An example based on an existing transport aircraft is considered. The basic nomenclature of transported cargoes of the designed aircraft, its dimensions and weight, methods of loading and mooring, additional loading equipment were taken as initial data. As well as such necessary design, operational and regulatory parameters and data as landing gear type, its “kneeling” system, rails of the upper loading equipment for loading and unloading, cargo trajectories during loading and landing, requirements of international regulatory organizations FAR, CS, AP. The principle of determining the dimensions of the cargo compartment, cargo floor and the hitting platforms in the form of ramp with pressure door, ladders is presented, based on the initial data. Taking into account the loading and unloading, landing operations described the dependence of the ramp length on the length of the cargo floor. The correct formation of these parameters is one of the most important tasks, from the solution of which directly depend the operational characteristics of the future transport aircraft. A method for designing cargo door fairings in the transport category aircraft fuselage tail part is also presented. There have been determined the main features of the fairings compartment, its main components and their varieties, depending on the scheme of the cargo door. At the stage of preliminary design, the principles for determining the main parameters of the fairings compartments based on their design purpose are outlined.Also provided information on the fairings compartment structural elements parameters selection: the axes of the fairings hinge, the selection of control cylinders and their installation, the parameters of the open and closed position locks, pressurization and sealing of the fairings compartment. Considered the design features of the fuselage tail section various theories fairings compartment - made in cross-section with one radius (in the shape of a cylinder) and given in cross-section with two radii (double-deck).
