Abstract

A system-level multidisciplinary aircraft model has been developed exclusively in MATLAB/Simulink. Aircraft subsystem models representing the air vehicle system, propulsion system, robust electrical power system, thermal management systems, actuation system and their associated controllers were integrated to investigate the thermal management issues of a long range strike platform. The aircraft model coined tip-to-tail modeling and simulation tool (T2T M&S) allows conceptual design trade studies of various subsystems and can quantify performance gains across the aircraft. As a result, the thermal and power challenges that face modern aircraft can be addressed, potentially increasing the performance capabilities of future aircraft. Preliminary simulation results are discussed with a specific focus on thermal management during mission segments of high thermal demands.
