Abstract

The center of gravity (CG) has a significant influence on the controllability, stability, and fuel efficiency of the aircraft. For the aircraft with multiple fuel tanks, the CG position can be controlled by the fuel quality of different fuel tanks during flight. In this paper, an optimization method based on discrete cosine transform (DCT) compression is proposed to solve the optimization strategy of aircraft multi-tank fuel supply according to the current aircraft mission and engine working requirements. The transform coefficients of the low frequency components are used as design variables to represent the fuel supply curves. The improved KS function is proposed to deal with constraints. The numerical example is demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
