Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the hydrocarbon (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions caused by commercial flights and the global warming potential of these emissions. Environmental effects were calculated for the landing and take-off (LTO) cycles of aircraft and their effects on global warming potential were determined. The environmental impacts of 22 different models of aircraft in the LTO cycle and their impact on global warming potential were calculated. Fuel consumption, HC and CO emissions reached the highest value in the taxi phase. It was determined that NOx emissions reached the highest value in the climb-out phase. It is concluded that HC and CO emissions can be reduced approximately 7% by shortening the taxi time by 2 minutes. It has been calculated that the effect of the climb-out phase on the global warming potential in the LTO cycle is the highest with 40%.
