'-'The st.jdy results Indicate that it is feasible to design a competitive power-bv-wire actuation t!rplane. However, specific areas in hardware developmentned to be Oemonstrated through Research and Development programs to make theall-electric-airplane conzept practical and low risk !oi the 1990+ time frame.

Cost savings were identified with tre all-electric airplane for the Al,mission. These came p.-imai-ily from reduced secondary power ybystem weight andcomplexity at some expense in ground checkout capability without running theengines This study selected engine-shaft-mounted electric qenerators asopposed to airframe mounttc' accessory drives for the basel ii _ airplane.

Different mission/air vehicles will have to be studied indi-idually to project(,st and other benefits available from an all-electric airplane concept. TheA(S study showed minor differences between hydraulic and all-electricapplications, with a slight advantage toward -in all-electric approach in termsof life cycle cost.

T.e objective of this program was to establish the advantages/disdavarteges

and life cycle cost impact for tio types of 1090+ time frame airclanc%, one

which has hydre l ically powered actuation systems (Baseline Airplane) nd the

other %kiich has electrically powered actuation systems (All-Electric cr Fower-

By-Wire Airplane). A secondary objective of this program was to identify the

1990-1 technology needs and development requirements of hydraulic, power-by-

wire actuation systems and secondary rower systems for future aircraft. The

comparison was made of both the actuation and the secondary power systems.

Parameters that were quantified for comparison were weight, reliability/

maintainability and life cycle costs. In addition, qualitative evzluations

were meue on the basis o' structural integration, growth potential,

survivability/vulnerabil sty, ElFC/lightning, environmental constraints andtechnology risks.

Data Base, an air-tL-surface (ATS) airplane configuration was established, the

actuation functions were defined, and the requirements for these actuation

systems were established.

The study was ccnducted using the Boeing Fodcl 987-350 ATS as the point of

ref, rence airplane for which engineering development would begin in 1990,

production in 1095, and initial operational capability (ICC) in 1997. The

model 9P7-350 has zs ell-moving canard, an arrow wing, win rod-moul'tec

engines with variabi _ geometry inlets and two-dimensional vectoring and thrust

reversing noz; cs. a thrust-to-weight ratio of 0.87 and a maximLn gross weight

of 49,000 lbs. The airplane carries an internally mcunted 25 mm gun and 5000

lbs of air-to-ground weapons. The airplane is designed for a high level (IPech

22.2) and a low level (Vach 0.9 to 1.2) interdiction mission. The design life

is 10,000 flight hours and 6,000 landings.

The actti tion functions defined were flight controls (canard, elcvons, rudder,

spoilers and leading edge flaps), engine controls (inlet centerbody and bypass

doors), lending gear (retraction, steering and brakes), aerial rEfueling (door

and nozzle latch), and canopy. Thrust vectoring/reversing actuation vas

determined to be pneumatic in the high temperature environment of that

application, and therefore was not part of the hydraulic/electric actuation

trade study. In addition, drive power for the 25-rm gun ane environmental

control system (boost and pack compressors, and cooling fan) was inrluded.

The actuation requirements were defined in sufficient detail so tiat sysl imsn

for both the Baselire and All-Electric Airplanes could be designed.

An electrical load analysis was also prepared. The load analysis included the

normal housekeeping and avionics electrical loads along with power

requirements for actuation systems.

In Phase !1, Design of Two Airplanes, the actuatior and secondary power

systems were designed for the Baseline and All-Electric Airplanes. Several

configurations for each actuation function were devdloped and the optimutn

system was selected based on weight, envelope for structural intcgration,

efficiency, power demand, system comrplexity ano technology projections into

the 1990's. lhe dpeign And selection ef the actuation sst•.e for.. the Ml-

Electric Airplane were primarily conducted with d:.ta supplied by t.e

AiResearch fanufacturing Company of California under a subcontract. The power

demands were determined for the hydraulic and electrical systems for the

Baseline Airplane and for the electrical systsm for the All-Electric Airplane.

Several secondary power system configurations were developed for both

airplanes and an optimum system selected for each.

In Phase 1II, Trade Study, data for systems weights, reliability/

maintainability, and life cycle costs were developed.

The reliability was computed by defining the minimum equipment levels for less

of mission and loss of aircraft, developing the fault trees and computing theSpro)babilities.

The m•intainability and life cycle costs were determined using the RCA PRICE

and PRICE L computer programs. Each system (actuation and secondary power)

for both airplanes was broken down to the line replaceable unit (LRU) end

various input parameters were developeo describing the quantity, weight, ratio

of structure and electronics, complexities, and development ,nd prod'uctiondates. The output frc the PRICE program provided mean-time-cetweer.failure

(FIITF), development costs, and production costs. The PRICE L program also

provided the Operating and Support Costs.

Based on the above data, overall weights, reliability/maintainability and life

cycle costs were computed and compared. Along with this a qualitative

assessment of the structural integration, growth potential, survivability/

vulnerability, EVC/liohtning, environmental constraints, and technology risk

of the actuation and seconciary power systrms of both airplanes was conducted.

The results of this program indicate that the All.-Electric Airplane offers a

potential for reducing the life cycle costs of the actuation and secondary

power systems by approximately 12% compared to the Baseline Air-plane

configuration. On an airplene of this type and size the weight penalty

associated with EM' actuation w!th respect to hydraulic actuation is offset by

the weight savings in the secondary power system. The secondary power system

opposed to the A'AD concept for the Baseline Airplane. This results inreduced ground checkout capability for monitoring the main generator without

running the engines.

The probabilities of mission success and aýrpiane safety 4re comparable for

both airplanes. The MTBF of the E!Y actuation system was lower than thehydraulic actuation; the ?ýTF of All-Electr'c secondary pc.er system was

higher than the conventional mixed hydraulic/electric secondary power system,

but not enough Highcr to completely offset tie lov.er IvIBF of Er' actuation.

Assessment of the other factors indicated that EP' actuation and electrical

secondary power system could easc structural integration problems and provideadditional growth potential. From a survivability/vulnerability standpointthe hydraulic power system was more vulnerable then the elcctrical system from

weapons effects, vihereas the EF actuation system was more vulnerable to

jawming due to the necessity of gearboxes in every appiication. EN'C/iightning

effects could impact the fly-by-wirE (FBW) and electrical systems in eitherairplane, but the EY actuation would also be impacte. in the All-Electric

Airplane. There were no high technology risks associated .ith the Baseline

Ai rpi ane.

The study also indicated that a hybrid system arrangement may hevc some

benefit. The results show that the primary payoff for the Al l-Electric

Airplane resulted from elimination of the engine driven hydr ulic systemI

i.e., adapting a single source p, er system. These benefits could also be

realized through the application of integrated actuator packages (IAP),

electr.c motor driven hydraulic actudtor systems. These shoued some potential

benefit for certain flight control functions. For example, the study results

indicated that use of an TAP for rudaer a:tuation offered no weight penalty

over the EM. actuator and has .. lover development risk.

SThe results and conclusions drawn from this study are based on an assumption

that certain technology advancements will be made by the 1590+ time frame.

Technology developments that are required to meet these needs or that offer

alternatives in the design of the actuation and secondary power systems were

identified. For the Baseline Airplane these include:

o High pressure hydraulic system

o Bi-directional power transfer units

o Hydraulic fuses and circuit breakers

o Load adaptive/stored energy actuators

0 Advanced fly-by-wire actuators

* o Staged sequential servo ram actuation

For the All-Eectric Airplane the technology needs include the devclopmcnt e":

o Lightweight, high efficiency gearboxes

o Speed optimized electric motors

o Load-adaptive/stored energy actuation techniques

u Variable authority EM actuators

o Controller/inverters

o High voltage DC electric systems

o Integrated actuator packAges

Several of these developments idLntified for both the Baseline and the

All..Electric Airplanes are applicable to a hybrid system.

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Backgroond

Current aircraft are characterized by having tw main forms of on-board

secondary power generation, distribution, and utilizationr i.e., electrical

power and hydraulic power. In guceral , hydraulic pover is generated,

distributed, and utili7ed for the majority of the actuation jobs including

flight control surfaces, landing gear extension and retraction, brakes, and

nose wheel steering. Electrical power is used for functions like stability

augmtntation, fuel and engine control, heating and cooling, lighting,

avionics, weapons control, instrumentation, and utility air vehicle functions.

Powered actuation is essential in today's high-performance aircraft. Landing

gear, gun drive, and canopy operation also require high power. Superior

airplane controllability and handling qualities characteristics recuire not

only high pow'r, but also dcCurate and responsive controls. Hydraulic

actuation has become the mainstay for most of these control tasks because of

high torque-to-invrtliaz acability, high power and v;eight etticienry, and

tremendous develol:Ynt and experience. Technology advancements in the

electromechanical field are showing promise for alternative means ef

actuation. Consideration needs to be given and evaluations made with these

new technology trends in mind.

Major factors stimulating the application of power-by-wire actuation are in

the advanccmer.ts in high-voltage power suppl es, rare earth perm.anent magnet

motors, elcctronic conmmutation, and improvcd sol id-state power switching

devices. These factors lead to the objectives of this study v,hich are:

(1) Est3bl ish advantages/diseavantagEs and life cycle ccst impact of

hydraulically powered actuation and electrically powered actuation for

aircraft in thE 1990+ time frame.

(2) Identify technology needs, risks, and development requirements for future

aircraft actuati n systems.

1.2 Objrctive

S The objective of this study was to conduct a trade-off comparison between a

I 1

Page 21: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

"Baseline Airplane" (one that contains an .ngine-driven hydraulic system for

actuation) and an "ill-Electric Airplane" (one that contbins only an

engine-driven electrical system for rower-by-wire actuation). The study was

conducted on an ATS airplane. The airplane is designed for a hig,'

survivability interdiction mission. For the trc"., each "airplane" is

designed to utilize every beneficial technology advancement considered

available in the 1990+ time frame. Six areas of actuation were considered in

the study. These were the flight controls, engine in',et controls, thrust

reverser/vector controls, lar'ing gear, aerial refueling, and canopy

actuation. In addition the gun controls and ECS were considered as users of

secondary power.

1.3 Approach

The program was divided into three phases as follows:

Phase I Devclopncnt of ATS Design Data base

Phase II Design of Two Airplanes

Phase III - Airplane Actuation Trade Study

Basel ine Airplane

The hyaraulic/clectric powered airplane was tcrmed the Baseline Airplane. The

hydraulic dctuation systems considered various types of pover drive units,

output mechanisms, and control valving. Secondary power extraction is

accomplished by power take-off shafts from each engine which drive airframe

mounted accessory drives (AVAD). The tio APADs are connected togcthcr and to

a LOX/JP-4 Integrated Power Unit (IPU) through an angle gearbox. Duringnormal flight, the F'AUs are driven by their respective engines and the angle

gearbox is declutched. During an Er.ergency, shaft power can be extracted frcinthe opposite engine or the IPU through the angle gearbox. Each APAD drives

two hydraulic pumps and an electrical generator. The right-hand AMAD also

drives the ECS boost compressor. This AFAD configuration provides the

capability to operate the engine driven secondary power system without

orerating the engines, for ground checkout.

2

Page 22: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

All-Electric Airplane

Two types of actuation systems were considered for the All-Electric Airplane

actuation functions: electromer.hanical actuation (ErVA) systems and integrated

acLuator package (IAP) systems. EMA's were selected for all functions since

they Proved lighter and less complex in all cases when compared with the

equivelent IAP. Secondary power extraction is accomplished by a 150-kw

starter-generator mounted on the spinner at the front of each engirie. A third

150-kw generator is mounted on the LOX/JP-4 lntegrazed Power U.oit (IPU). The

three generators produce wild frequency power which is converted to 270V dc by

phase delay rectifier (PDR) bridge converters. Secondary convertcrs provide

power at other voltages required. Interconnection provisions are included in

the three generation systems for engine starting and transfer of loads in case

of failure of the main generation systems. This systoi provides for ground

checkout of all electrical functions, except the engine-driven generators/

regulators themselves, without operating the engines.

II AIRPLANVE REQUIREMENTS

The tasic airplane configuration and requirements which forrcd the dcsigr dcta

base for the trade study airplane were developed during Phase 1. Design

criteria and requirements for the actuation functions and othcr functions

requiring on-board generatcd secondary power were defined.

2.1 Airplane Corfiguration

The AIS missicn concept was specified as týe point-of-reference airplane. The-

Boeing teodel 987-350 ATS (Air-to-Surface) Airplane (Figure 1) was chosen for

this purpose. It is a vectored-thrust, canard/arrow, wing with a

thrust-to-weight ratio of 0.87 and a gross %eight of 49,000 lbs. The airplane

configuration includes thin pod-mounted engines, wing-shieldcd half-round

variable-geometry inlets, 2-D vectoring and thrust reversing nozzles, ard an

all-moving canard. Armament consists of an internally-mounted 215-n gun, two

advanced short-range missiles, and 5000 lbs of air-to-ground weapons mounted

semisubmerged in two fuseiagr cutouts. Airplane performance is shown in

Figure 2. STOL take-off and landing performa:ica is shown in Figure 3. The

airplane is designed for a high-survivability interdiction mission (Figure 4).

The flight envelope is shown in Figure 5. Design life of the airplane is

i0,000 flight hours and 6,000 landings.

2.2 Actuation System Pcquirements

The PTS Model 987-350 act',ation system rccuircmcnts were divided into fivc

areas as follows:

o Fl ight Controls

o Engine Inlet

o Landing Gear

o Aerial Refueling

o Canopy Actuation

o Thrust Reverser/Vector Controls

It was determined that the thermal cr;vironm.nt for the thrust reverser and

vectoring actuation systems would be too harsh (Figure 6) for use of

electromechanical or hydraulic actuators without auxiliary cooling provisions.

Thus it was concluded that neither the electromechanical nor the hydraulic

actuators could Effectively compete with pneumatic actuators, traditionally

used in these applications. These high temperatures can damage insulation on

electric motor windings, would be close to the Curie temperature of the

permanent magenets causing demagnetization, and cause motor bearing lubricant

problems. In the case of hydraulic actuators, conventional hydraulic fluids

could not be used and seal problems would also be encountered. To utilize

electromechanical or hydraulic actuators would require Eithcr one or both of

cooling provisions and remote location of actuators with complex mechanical

linkages to transmit the actuation fc-ces. This would add to the system

complexity and impact the reliability and cost of the system. Therefore,

pneumatic actuation systems for the thrust rev:rsing and vectoring functions

were selected. This allowed the deletion of these actuation functions from

further consideration in this study.

In each of the other area, the rum-ber of actuators rcu-icdi for ezich function.

and the configuration and redundancy of the actuation systems were defined.

The requirements are summarized in Tables I to 4.

2.3 Gun and ECS Power Requirements

Two additional areas where shaft power is utilized are the 2ý:-mmn gun system

and the environmental control system.

The gun system recuires 14 hp for the gun drive and 11 hp for the aer..unition

feed system. This power can be delivered by an electrical motor or hydraulic

riotor. The motors require start-up and reversing capability for shell

c'earing purposes. Figure 7 shows the power and speed vs firing rate.

The ECS, shown schematically in Figure 8, requires three motors; one each for

tre boost compressor, the ECS compressor and the ECS fan. The boost

compressor motor has to provide 50.b hp at speeds varying from 15,000 to

4C,000 rpm to be compatible Aith the following boost compressor requircments:

2.4 Other Airplane Power Rcouirements

Power requirxme:its for other air vehicle and avionics sLbsystems are listed inTable 5. All these recuirements are met by electrical power. The kk

requirements for these items are the same for the Baseline and for the All-

Electric Airplanes, except where noted. The difference is that in the

Baseline Airplane these loads are supplied from 400-r:z power whereas in theAll-Electric Airplane they are supplied from 270-vdc poker. It is assumeC

that in the 1990 time frame, all these loads w:ill be compatible w'ith either

400-Hz or 270-vdc power.

Loads not listed ir, Table 5 are the same for either airplene and do not

SIlI BASELINE AIRPLANE CONFIGURATION

3.1 General

The objective of the design phase was to select the most competitive

combination of hydraulic actuation systems, hyoraulic power systems for

transiiittinq power to those actuation systems, and electrical power systems

for providing fly-by-wire control to those actuation systems that could be

considered available in the 1S9C-plus time framc. In keeping with the overall

objectives and requircments, it was required that the selected hydraulic rower

system derive its power primarily from the engine through engine-driven pumps

and transmit that power through a distributed system of hydraulic transmission

line tubing to the actuation systems. The total secondary power system and

the ectLation systems are defined so that a direct comparison can be made with

the Ail-Electric Pirplane design described in Section IV.

3.2 Actuation Systems for the Baseline Airplane

Consideration was given to various types of poer drivc units, output

mechenisms and control valving arranged in a variety of combinations to suit

the particular requirements for the various contrnl functions. The types of

power drive units evaluated included piston actuators, vane actuators and

multipiston motors. The typss of output mcchenismrs evaluated included bell

cranks, rack-and-pinion gearing, helical or ball splines, spur gearing, tent-

beam Eccentuators, threaded Fov.er screws or ball screws, and planetary or

skip-tooth gearing for hinge-line units. The control valve concepts

considered were single-stage direct-drivE and tvo-stage clEctrohydraulic servo

valves, staged sequentially-controllcd valves, stepper-motor-driven rotary

valves, and solenoid vaivcs.

After evaluation of the various actuation systems aveilable, a final

configuration was selected for each application. Table 6 summarizes thE

selected systems for the airplane flight controls and Tables 7 and 8 for the

non-flight control functions. Figure 11 shows the location of the actuatorsin the aircraft and Figure 12 shows how these actuators are intcgrated intothe aircraft structure. Each of the -,ndividu3l dpplications is covered in the

following -aragraphs.

3.3 Flight Control Actuation

3.3.1 Canard

The canard is a critical flight control surface whose continued control is

essential for mission completion and safety of flight. Actuation tradesconsidered the two canard surfaces interconnected as well as separated, eventhough so diftcrential surface control is required since the canard is used

only for pitch control. In addition, both linear and rotary actuator designs

were evaluated. The selected configuration uses linear actuators

independently controlling each canard surface as showv in Figure 12. Thefollowing reasons are the basis for this selection:

1. The linear actuator system is lighter. This is because the length ofthe linear actuator is propertionai to the total cortrol surface

dcflections and the rotary actuator is independcnt of the ccntrol

surface deflection. With only 30 dcqree total surface deflection,linear actuator stroke is only 4.2 inches.

2. Due to the inefficiency of a hydraulic motor and gearbox, the totalpower consumption of the rotary actuation system wvuld bc higher. In

audition, a hydraulic motor has a higher internOl leakzge than thelinear actuator. Canards are used for longitudinal trim; and, the

steady state aerodynamic load causes more fluid leakage across thehydraulic motors than the linear actuators. This, together with thehigh duty cyclc of the canard surfaces, results in a higher total

power consumption.

3. The configuration with no interconnection betv.een the tv.o canard

surfaces results in less weight and reduces complcxity. The aoded

act.uation weight for separate surface control is more than offset bydeletion of the interconnecting mechanism and since no additional

control capability is needed in terms of increased power, there is no

impact on secondary power requircments.

The canard actuation system utilizes four dual-tandem actuators arranged dnd

powered from the three hydraulic systems to meet the redundancy requirement asspecified in Table 4. Tandem actuators are used because they can be plece€

33

Page 57: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

close to the surface to maintain adequate stiffness between the actuator rod

and the canard surface.

Each dual-tandem actuator cunsists of a ful1-area piston and a half-area

piston. Any two of the three hydraulic systems can drive both canard surfaces

at 100% of the design hinge moment:; 50% from system #1 through the two forward

actuator full-area pistons, 50% from system #2 through the two aft actuator

full-area pistons, and 5"% from system #3 throuOh all four actuator half-area

pistons. Under normal conditions, (all 3 hydraulic systems operating) each

tandem actuator is capable of providing 75% of the surface design hinge moment.

Valves are sized to meet the rate requirement at maximum load. A flow

limiter, limiting the maximum rate to 70 degrees per second, avoids excessive

flow at the no-load condition.

Actuation system components for eacý of the two canard surfaces consists of

the following:

Dual-tandem linear actuatcr

(2 required P 39 pounds each) 78.0 pounds

Control Valve Podule 7.0 pounds

Total Veight, per surface 85.0 pounds

3.3.2 Elevons

Th2 elevon control surfaces have a duai role to provide both longitudinal and

lateral control of the airplane. Pctuation trades considered both linear anarotary actuator dcsigns as well as installation of part of the s)stem in the

body. The hinge moment requirements for the elevons are large and the

available space for equipment installation is small dLe to the thin wing

geometry. Configuration studies indicited that both linear and rotary

actuation equipment exceeded the designated envelore.

Since the maximun hinge moment when moving the trailing edge down is roughly

twice as large as the maximum hInge moment when moving it up, an unequal-erea

linear actuator can be used with the piston head-end area sized to meet the

34

Page 58: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

larger load and the rod-end area sized to meet the smaller load, .bereas the

rotary actuator has tc be sized to meet the larger load. The linear actuator

is the more efficient approach due to the inefficiency of a hydraulic

t motor/gearbox arrangement. Also, since the elcvon surfaces are used for

longitudinal trim, the steady-state aerodynamic loads would cause more fluid

leakage across the hydraulic motors than the linear actuators.

Therefore, the choice uf the linear actuator for the elevon function results

"in a lighter system with less power consumption. Consideration was given to

installing the actuators in the body to avcid exceeding the envelope

requirement. However, the torque tubes required to carry the load to the

eleven became unreasonably large and heavy. A detailed study of the airrlanc

structure and geometry determined that an increased number of smaller diameter

linear actuators with shorter moment arms could be used to better fit the

envellop with less fairing.

The selected configuration (Figure 12, Vie' F) uses four actuators (tvo

dual!rar.llpl I inpar actuators) per surface to meet the hinge mrýent

requirements with minimum actuator dimensions and fairing. Each of the four

actuators weighs 75 pounds.

The increase in drag due to the elevon actuator fairing on the baseline

airplane is two-tenths of one percent of the t(tal airplane cruise drag. The

resulting impact on specific fuel consumption v.ill be negligibl and no

furtter consideration %ill be given to this subject in the trade study.

The actuator and valve are sized to meet the rate requiremncnt at maximum load

and also meet the maximum rate of 70 degrces/sec at no load. No flow limiters

are used. The major actuation characteristics are:

Actuator piston area 6.8 in 2 head end, 2.2 in 2 rod endMouent Arm 10 inches

Stroke (Total) 6.7 inches

Page 59: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

3.3.3 Rudder

The rudder control surface provides directional control of the airplane.

Actuation trades considered both linear and rotary actuation.

The rotary actuation system, Figure 12, View C, was chosen for the rudder

function for the following reasons:

(1) Envelope restrictions require that linear actuators be placed in the

aircraft body which in turn requires a long torque tube to carry the

load evenly to the surface. Also, the large surface deflection, CO

degree total, requires a relatively long linear actuator. These tv'o

factors result in a greater weight for the linear actuation system.

The rotary actuation system is able to fit in the designated envelope

and is able to handle the large surface deflection with less weight.

(2) Due to the inefficiency of the hydraulic-motor/gearbox, fluid leakage

and peak power consumption of the rotary actuation system is higher.

H{owever, the rudder load and dut, cycle are relatively low and power

consumption caused by internal fluid leakage across the hydraulic

motor is low.

One configuration considered used three hinge-line gcarboxes to distribute the

load to the rudder surface. Fioever, after detailed study of the structure,

geometry, and gearbox design, it was determined a single tinge-line gearbox

•as more desirable and i.vuld result in a weight saving.

The s lected system consists of a pov.er drive unit., including two hydraulic

motcrs, control valves and a torque-s•mnmcd reducing gearbox installed in the

body. A torque tube is used to carry the load to the single hinge-line

gearbox attached to the surface. Hydraulic motors are sized to meet the rate

requirement at maximum load. No flow limiter is required.

The actuation system for the rudder consists of the following components:

Hydraulic 1Potor (2 required P 7.5 lbs) 15.0 pounds

Hingeline Gearbox 22.0 pounds

Reduction Gearbox 11.0 pounds

Total Weight 48.0 pounds

36iI

Page 60: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

2 3. 4 Spoilers

The spoiler control surfaces provide, in conjunction with the elevons, lateral

control of the airplane. Actuation trades considered both linear and rotaryactuation.

Selection of a linear actuation system instead of a rotary actuation

arrangenent was influenced by the following:

(1) An unequal-area linear actuator to handle unequal loads results in a

lighter system and lower power ccnsu1nption than a rotary actuation

system.

(2) Spoilers are fairly inactive during normal flight. The surfaces are

retracted most of the time and the actuators or the motors are

positioned to hold against the upward aerodynamic load. The

hydraulic motor in a rotary actuation system W;ith larger internal

fluid leakage consumes more power due to holding this load. A

hydraulic check VdIve is usually provided in the hydraulic supply

line of the linear actuator to prevent back driving when the

aerodynamic load exceeds the actuator capability. Use of the check

valve is not effective in the rotary actuation system because of the

higher internal leakage across the motor.

The selected system, Figure 12 View F, consists of an unecual-erea linear

actuator driving each of the four spoiler segments. Each actuator weighs 17.8

po und s.

The laorger actuator area (piston end) is activc when the actuator is holding

the spoiler trailing edge down, while the larger area (ro-d end) is active when

the actuator is forcing the trailing edge up. A flow limiter is used to

reduce excessive flow in the no-load condition.

3.3.5 Leading Edge Flaps

The original linear actuator design approach was to tie all leading edgc flap

surfaces together and actuate by two linear actuators installed in the body.

37

Page 61: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

This was foune, impractical due to the large torque tube required to carry the

load out to the flaps. The alternative, shown in Figure 12 View L, uses two

linear actuators, powered by a single Fydraulic systcn, to control each flap

segment and is the approach selected jr the Baseline Airplane. Since the

aerodynamic load is only exerted in one direction, an unequal-area actuator is

used. A blocking valve and bypass valve are requ.red so that the actuator

will remain in the last selected position in the event of total power loss. A

flow limiter is required to limit the actuator rate in the no-load condition.

A total of 12 actuators are required, each with a weight of 19.3 pounds.

A rotary actuation scheme, consisting of a body-nounted power drive unit

driving through a torcue tube and angle gearbox to hinoeline gearboxes, was

also considered. The rotary actuation approach and the original linear

approach, with all leading edge flap segments connected together, were

abandoned in favor of the selected approach because:

(1) Total surface deflection is small and aerodyramic loa2 is only in onedi nretni

(2) Because of the inefficiency of týe gearboxes and hydraulic mctors,

the rotary configuration is heavier and consumes more [rower. The

flaps are required to operate during descent and landing wh.en the

hydraulic power supply is low due to lower engine power settings.

(3) kith all flaps tied together, there is a remcte chanre for asyntnctric

deployment in the event of a structural failure. Each linear

actuator incorporates a blocking valve so that in case of failure,

such as loss of hydraulic power, the flap will remain in the last

selected position. Structural aamege, or both actuators leaking,

could cause one flap to blov. back jhich is less serious (and is

considered acceptable) than all three flaps failing togethcr.

3.4 Engine Inlet Control Actuation

3.4.1 Engine Inlet Centerbody

The function of this actuation system is to drive a linkage assembly that

m'.,es the inlet centerbody ramp which in turn expands or contracts the

centerbody radially thereby regulating the speed of the ncoming air.

38

Page 62: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

Both linear and rotary actuation schemes tere considered. Since the

aerodynamic load is in one direction only. an uncqual-area linear actuator

proves to be considerably lighter than the less efficient rotary actuation

system.

The g-neral arrangement is shown in Figure 12 View. P. The actuator and valve

are sized to meet the maximum rate at maximum load. A flow limiter is used to

limit flow in the no-load condition. One actuator is required per engine,

with a weight of 18.0 pounds each.

3.4.2 Engine Inlet Bypass Doors

As shown in Figure 12 View P-P, there are four bypass doors for each engine.

The aerodynamic loads are small but the doors are required to open up to 90

degrLEs.

Poth rotary and linear actuation systems were considered for this functiontifh ÷ a e. i .- a "^ n +"M +,* J *am -^.- +- -• * *-1 *, 1^'.A * .c •

(1) A rotary system is more suited to large deflection angles; a linear

(2) . rotary system is more compact for this application.

The actuation system for each of t,'e 4 pairs of bypass doors consists of the

following components:

Potary Vane Actuator 4.0 pounds

Total Weight per pair of doors 4.C pounds

3.5 Landing Gear and Brakes

The hydraulic actuation concepts traditiorally used for larding gear

ret,-action, steering, and brakes, and for the other utility subsystems, have

been highly refined over tl,e past 40 years. Except for the few exceptions

noted, no improvement could be found in deviating from the normal practice

other than using the increased pressure level seiected for this ATE study

39

Page 63: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

aircraft (See Section 3.10.3). For landing gear retraction, unbalanced-piston

-ictuating cylinders cperating through appropriate belicranks generate the

- equired force moment to lift the gear against its combined dead weight and

aerodynamic loads. With built-in snubbing provisions, they can cushion the

load at either end of the stroke including the bottoming load due to emergency

free-fall extension. Ali components are covered in the following paragraphs

except the isolation alves (2 at 2.0 pounds each), and the 3-Position control

valve (I at ?.0 pounds).

3.5.1 Vain Gear Retraction

The retraction/cxtension system ft- tile mein landing year consists of tvo

linear pi-ton actuators, one for each main gear, controlled by one solenoid

valve. Lending gear doors are siaved to the gear strut, and uplocks and

downlocks function through the motion of the actuator and mechanical linkage.

This is a ipr,-rovcmcnt over -:oni existing aircraft whicr require separate

actuators for actuating doors and position locks. In addition, like most

aircraft, the system allo.ws emergency free-fall extension following manual

release of the ur'ock by the pilot. The installation is shovn in Figure i2

Viev R.

The selected actuator extenas during gear retraction and retracts during gear

extensiar. with snubbing 1rovidEd at the retracted tgear extend'o) end. The

actuatcr Wigtt for each of the t,.o main gears is 1P.9 pounds.

3.5.2 Nose Sear Petraction

The retraction/extension system for the nose gear consists of one linear

piston actuator in a systc)n similar to that djesc.ibed for each main gear. The

actuator is controlled by thE sam.- solenoid ialve used for the ,main gear. The

instailaticrn is shown in Fwiure 12 View S.

The selected act:-ator retracts during gear retraction anti extends during gear

extension. actuator welght is 29.5 pounds.

Page 64: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

3.5.2 Nose Gear Steering

Nose gear steering is provided by an actuator module, consisting of a vane

type rotary Vower drive unit with spur gear output, electrohydraulic position

servovalve, and associated functionall circuits. It is mounted on the nose

gear strut and drives a strut-mounted ring gear as shown in Figure 12 View S.

Actuator weight, including the hydraulic motor, is 22 pounds.

3.5.4 Vain Gear Wheel Brakes

The main gear wheel brakes are multiple disk type using advanced composite

carbon heat sink material. Pctuation arrangement is the standard multiple

hydraulic pistons in a brake housing sized for 5000-psi oFerating pressure.

Two brakes are required, one per each main vheel.

The brake actuation components have been segregated from the total brake

assembly in order to pemit a more meaningful comparison with the All-Electric

Air'plane. The brake actuation system for each of the tto main gears consists

of the following components:

Piston Actuators (8 required @ 0.5 lb) 4.0 pounds

kear Adjustors (8 recuired @ 1.0 lb) 8.0 rounds

Control Valve 'Vodule 9.0 pounds

Shutoff Valve 1.0 pound

Parking Valve 2.5 pounds

Pccumulator (including 3 Pcunds fluid) 13.X, _ot:.nds.

Total, per gear 37.5 pounds

3.6 Aerial Refueling System

A standard universal aerial refueling receptacle slipwcy installation (UARRSI)

is provided. For this study, the current 2,000-psi actuatien system with two

linear piston actuators, the slipway door actuator and the nozzle latch

actuator is used along with a pressure reducing valve to reduce the 5,0CC-psi

system pressure to 3,000 psi for this subsystem. Actuation systctn weig;-ts are:

3.7 Canopy Actuation

Due to the relatively large overhanging moment, a linear piston actuator with

an operating lever arm as shown in Figure 12 View S, was selected. Pn

internal locking mechanism holds the actuator in its retracted (canopy open)

position, and internal snubbinj is provided at Loth ends of its stroke.

Actuation system weights are:

Linear 'ctuator 2.9 pounds

3.8 Gun Drive

A hydriaii-c motor is used to drive the - C ~tl ing-t-pc gun rotor simfla, to

the currently used 20-m and 30-mm gun drives. Cne motor is used to drive the

gun barrel and the ammunition feed system which require 14 hp and 11 hp

respectively at the design firing rate of 3,600 rounds per minute. For this

study, a 0.34 cj. in. per rev. (cipr) motor operating "t 7,200 rpm drives the

main gun systmn drive shaft at 1,800 rpn through a 4:1 speed-rcducing gearbox.

Component weights are as follows:

Gun Drive Gear Eox 10.0 pounds

Pydrauli'ý h'otor 7.6 pounds

3-Position Control Valve 8.4 pounds

Total 26.0 poLnds

3.9 Environmertal Control System (ECS)

In order to minimize engine fuel consumption on aircrdft in the 1q90 time

frm~e, bleed-air extraction as traditionally used for the ECS pack will

probably rvt be permitted. Since the weigft and drag penalties for shaft

42

Page 66: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

power extraction are considerably lower than for bleed-air extraction, it is

assumed that the ECS power unit components must be driven either directly by

the engine or by hydraulic or electric motors. The environmental control

system has three power drive components as aescribed in the follo'ving

paragraphs. The systun schcmatic diagram is shown in Figure 13.

3.9.1 ECS Boost Compressor

Thc ECS boost comp.-essor raises ram iir pressure to meet the pressure demands

of the ECS pack. It is a continuous-duty unit with a speed range from 15,000

to 40,000 rpm, and a maximum output of 50 hp. The boost compressor is mounted

on the right hand engine-driven airframe-mounted accessory-drive (APAD)

gearbox.

3.9.2 ECS Pack Compressor

The ECS pack compressor compresses the vorking fluid, air or freon, used by

the refrigeraticn pack. It is a continuous- dUty unit with a fixed s-pcea

between 5,000 and 23,0CC rpm and an output power requirement of 10.7 hp. For

this study, a C.10-cipr motor drives the compressor directly at 10,000 rpm.

The hydraulic motor and associated 2-position control valve weigh a total of

5.0 o ur•ds.

3.9.3 Electronic Cooling Fan

The electronic cooling fan circulates air between týe heat sink, provided by

the ECS refrigeration pack, and the electronic equipment. It is a continuous-

duty two-speed unit running at 6,CCO rpm during subsoih.c flight and 12,CCO rpm

during supersonic flight and draws 21.5 and 42.9 hp respectively at those

speeds. For this study, a 0.525-cipjr motor drives the fan through a 1.5:1

speed-increasing gearbox. Component weights are as follows:

Gear Box 7.5 pounds

hydraulic Motor 7.6 pounds

3.10 Secondary Power System

3.10.1 General Arrangcment

During Phase II several Secondary Power System and subsystem arrangements were

devised, studied, and evaluated. This and the followirg sections sualmarize

that effort and describe the selected system.

A significant factor in the development of the secondary power generation

system arrangemcnt is the ability to drive the engine-driven hydraulic pumps

and electrical generators on the ground for system checkouts without powering

the main engines. This led to the selection of airframe-mounted

accessory-drive (AVAD) gearboxes which can be declutched from the main engines

for the ground checkouts and reclutched for normal operation. S1,ch units were

developed for the eoeing supersonic transport and have been used on several

recent military aircraft including thc e-I bcomlber, and the F-15, F-16, and

F-19 fighters.

Another significant facto.- is to provide power for starting the main engines

without external power sources. Three types of engine starters were

considered: a solid propellant or liquid propellant cartridge unit for eac.h

engine which supplies hot gas to an air turbine starter on each engine; a gas

turbine APU which provides Pot yes to an air turbine starter on each engine;

or, a gas turbine APJ or jet fuel starter vhich provides shaft poyer to each

eng irie.

The last cioice vas favored since it can also provide shift poier to the /1hPD

gearboxes tc drive the main hydraulic punps and generators for ground

checkouts. Of the seve;-al types of gas turbine power units whicth could be

considered, thr LOXJP-4 integrated power unit (IPU) was chosen as the r.ozt

Fpromising. This concept, wfich is beirg developed by the Rocketeyne Division

Sof Rockwell International under Air Force Aero Propulsion Laboratory contract

car operate either in a bipro-ellant power mode, with aircraft fuel (V?-4) and

l iquic oxygen (LOX) oxidizer, or in a standard gas turbine mode with JP-4 fuel

z nd outside air.

45ij

Page 69: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

The selected arrangement is shown in Figure 14 and the drive system components

and weights listed in Table 9. The LOX/JP-4 IPU and angle gearbox, both

normally dcclutched in flight, are conncctea to the MAD gcarboxcs for ground

checkout of the hydraulic and electrical systems and for engine starting. The

normal sequence is to start the IPU with the LOX/JP-4 gas generator and thenimnmediately switch to the gas turbine mode in order to conserve LOX. Then,

one or both APAD gearboxes can be connected for system checkouts. The engine

power-takeoff shafts can be connected for engine starting following which the

IPU can be shut down and the angle gearbox declutched from each AFAO gearbox.

Each AfVAD gearbox remains connected to its adjacent engine throughout the

normal flight operations.

During -n emergency situation where either engine suffers a flameout, shaft

power can be extracted either from the opposite engine or the iPU for starting

the disabled engine and keeping its A1VAD gearbox running. In the event of

simultaneous loss of roter from both engines, the IPU czn be started in theLOX/JP-4 mode immediately at any altitude and proviý- sufficient power to

ta :1 n ...- _ - 1M 1.4, thý AM n n,,nver tnn. V.. -.. t~n - .V a

accomplished, the IPU continues to drive the pumps and generators on the AIVAD

gearboxes so that the pilot can maintain vehicle attitude as necessary for an

engine start at lower altitude or for a safe ditching or bailout.

3.10.2 Electrical Power System

The electrical power systcm for the Baseline Airplanc is recuired to provide

electrical power in accordance with the requirements of MIL-E-25499 and

1IL-STD-7K4C. It must provide source redurdency for supplying pover to the

fly-by-wire flight control system and ether flight-critical loads in the

Baseline Airplane configuration. The electrical power system includes

generators, power conversion equipment, distribution circuits, ana associated

control and protection devices.

Thi-ee different clectri.al power generation concepts were comparatively

evaluated during Phase II:

(3) DC-Link type VSCF system

The cycloconverter type VSCF concept was selected tecause of its higher

operating efficiency, lower life-cycle cost, and higher reliability.

Equipment rating is based on the electrical load analysis discussed in the

following pjregraph.

3.10.2.1 Load Analysis

A detailed electrical load an, ysis was conducted during Phase Ii and is shown

in Figure 15 and Tables 10 and 11.

3.10.2.2 Selected System Arrange•nnt

A schematic diagram of the electrical power system arrangement is shown in

F`gure 16 and a list of m.jer cc.pon-nts and weights in Tatle 12. Primary

power generation consists of two samariu.i-cobalt permanent-magnet generators,

one mounted on each AI'AD gearbox, as shown in Figure 14. Permanent-magnet

generators were selected rather then wound rotor generators because of

increased generator efficiency, improved reliability, no rotor cooling

reouirement, and improved rotor baliance due to the solid rotor. The %riable-

frequency generator output is fed to a cyclocorverter, the output of which is

3-pase 120/208 vclts, 400 Hz. Each generatcr/cycloconvert-r channel is rated

at 6C kVA to provide margin for load growth. The AC load buses are

interconnected by switches which allow transferring loads of a disablEd

generator to the other generator. Logic prevents parallel operation of the

generators. Three transformer-rectifier units (TRU) convert 3-phase 4GO Hz

rower to 28 volts DC.

AC and DC ground buses permit ground servicing of the airplane and checkout of

some equipment using ground rower without energizing all of the equipment,

par icularly electronics, for long periods of timc on the ground. The source

of ground power can be either external electrical power via an external power

receptacle or one of the AVAD gcarbox-mcunted main aircraft generators driven

by the IPU.

Three high-reliability Dr. buses are providea for powering the triple-redundant

fly-by-wire flight cnntrol system. Each of these buses (FCE CHI, FCE CH2, and

FCE CH3 in Figure 16) is supplied by two sources of power: a generator and a

battery. The three buses share a comnmon battery, but each bus is connected to

the primary electrical power sources, i.e. the generators, tihrough ; different

TRU. Since there are only two main generators, two of the TRUs have to share

a common yeneratar. One of these TRUs (numnber 3 in Figure 16) is supplied

fron the AC ground bus, which is provided with svitching and co;atrol logic so

that if either main AC bus is energized the AC ground bus is energized. Thus

no singie tailure of a power source will cause a power interruption on any of

the FCE buses. Loss of the battery and one gcnerjtor will cause manentary

loss of one or two FCE channels, depending on whether or not the failed

generator is the one normally supplying the AC ^round bus. Power Yill1 be

recovered to all FCE busE.s within a few m4 lliseccnds when the AC Dus or buses

on the failed generator are transferred autsn.iaticaily to the remaining

generator.

A-An -r, ency • gciicr.t.. , dr .a nn '-rm hy a nl.17S-cior hvdr-aulic motor, is

incl.uded to provide power for the critical electrical equipment such as the

fly-by-wire flight controls in the event of loss of both main generators.

This generator is rated at 20 kVA, 3-phase 120/2C8 volts 400 Fz. It can be

connected to any or dll of the three ,main PC buses.

A 40-ampere-hour nickel-cadmi ura battery is included as backup for the

emergency genErator. Thc battery serves to maintain continuity of power to

the critical loads during start-up of the emergency generator ur the IPU

following loss of both main generators or both engines. In the event of loss

of both engines, the IPU will be clutched to one or both AVA0 gearboxes to

drive the hydraulic pumps and the main gene-ators. The IPU is capable of

starting an engine in flight while driving the loaded generators and hydraulic

* pumps.

3.10.2 Hydraulic Power System

The primary goal in configuring the hydraulic power system for the Easeline

Airplane was to provide the most coipetitive arrangement, in terms of size,

59

Page 83: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

weig.t, reliability, maintainability, and cost, that could be consiaered

available for the 1990 time frane. One of the first questions was to

determine the number of hydraulic subsystems required.

Rivorous compliance with rIL-H-5440G could lead to the use of three subsystems

since it requires that the hydraulic syste:m(s) be configured such that any tv.o

fluid system failures due to combat or other ctnage which cause loss of fluid

or pressure will not -Psult in complete loss of flight control, and that the

surviving system(s) shall provide sufficient ctjntrol to meet the level 3flying qualities of MIL-F-8785 for conventional takeoff and landing. however,

from the requirements for the individual actuation systems listed in Tabl: 4,

only the canard and eli in actuation systems have a firm requirement to

maintain actuation capability after the failure of two power sources.

Therafore, it was possible to consider either of twv basic tetions:

a. Provide three main hydraulic subsystemn

b. Provide two main subsystems with one or more additional auxiliary systEms

before a selection was made, a load analysis was cond:..ted, operating pressure

selected, and a rurnber of configurat'on arrangements were made for study.

M.10.3.1 Load Analysis

The hydraulic flow rates required for each actuato,- and hydraulic motor to

nbtain its design slew r5te or speed wcre determined Huring Phase Ii and are

,'tcj in Table 13. The maxim'm simultaneous flow demnand. for various flight

'ndition. were determined for each of the candidate !;ydraulic systems and are

ted in Tables 14 through 16 --or the selected arangcmenuL. Pump sizes were

determined and are li ted in Tab 17.

3.10.3.2 Operating Pressure

A number of studies, starting with those conducted by the Glenn L. Martin

Company (published in 1954 in Reference 7) have shown that hydraulic system

weight cai be educed by increasing system operating pressure above the

standard 2,300 psi level. Several aircraft -n the intervening years,

including the USAF B-70 and B-i bombers, the Concorde supersonic transport,

and other toreign aircraft, have been designed with 4,000 psi systems; and,

the Navy, in their desire for absolute weight minimization for future V/STOL

aircraft, has sponsored cevelcpnent of 2,000 psi system technology.

Ao�.e�er, in studies previously conducted at Boeing, it was concluded that,with nonnal design �ract�ce for i�ir Force combat aircraft, the minimum weight

of hydraulic transmission line tube ruim would be obtained witn a system

operating pressure of apcroxlmdtely 5,000 p� and that- their weight would

increase at higher pressures. This is shown in Figure 17. As showii in the

LA�'1�iAR (Fz4) curve, the minimum-weight pressure for tubing designed forlaminar fiow', with a burst safety factor of four times working pressure, is

arproxiniately 5,000 psi. With a burst safety factor of three times working

pressure (the LA1�INAR F�3 curve) the minimum-weight pressure is approximately

6,OCO psi; however, t�ere is very little reduction of weight by going topressures above SeOO psi.

These curves also shc�� that t a nim'�n-wei�ht p.essure increases if the

tubing is sized for turbulent flow. Sincu most Na�'y aircraft are not required

to start ur from a cold soak c.ordition and becume airborne within a few

minutes, as required f�r most Air Force ecinbat aircraft, the Navys tubing

sizes can be smaller and the fluid flow is nearly always turbulent. (Note

that Figure 17 was prepared for a presentation to the Naval Air OevelopmentCenter and the Naval Air Systems �oemiiand, and that the curves are based on

ecuations which included the characteristics of MIL-H-8322? fluid and the3A1-2.5V titanium alloy tubing. It is expected that the minimum-weightpressures would be approximately the s�rte for other ydreulic fluids but wouldbe somewhat lower for tubing alloys with ower strength-to-weight ratios.

'�owever, for an ATS aircraf� in th� 1990 time frame, the use of 3A1-2.5V coldworked titanium tubing is considered a good choice at this time.)

Figure 18 illustrates the transition tenweratures where laninar flow of

MIL-H-56C6 fluid in system tubing changes to turbulent flow for a typicala design flow velocity of 20 feet per second. Note that for almost all of the

normally used tubing sizes (-12 and smaller), the transitlc'i temperature is

above zero degrees Fahrenheit. Since it is considered that the ATS aircraft

used in this study is the type which must be able to start up from a cold soak

condition and become airborne within minutes, it is assumed that there wili be

times when design flow rates must be provided at fluid temperatures belcw zero

decrees and that the tubing must be designed for laminar flow conditicns.

In addition to the transmission line tubing, the hydraulic actuators also

represent a significant portion of the overall system weight. As sho~n in

Figure 19, minimum weight for typical actuators is expected between 3,COO and

6,000 psi depending upon actuator force size. As shown in Figure 20, the

optimum pressure for minimum space volume is somcvhat higher, and also

increases with actuator force size.

Therefore, in consideration that the predicted actuaticn forces for the study

aircraft are high, and in the interests of weight and space optimization,

5,000 psi was crosen as the system operating pressure.

3.10.3.3 Selected System Arrangement

The three-system hydraulic power arrangement was selected for the follov.ing

reasons:

(i) Hydraulic pump sizes required are within the range of sizes currently

available for 3000 and 4000-psi aircraft hydraulic systems. The

development of 5000-psi pumps in those sizes for use in the 1190-plus

time frame should present no insurmountable problems for the punp

manufacturers.

(2) The required sizes of the auxiliary pumps in the two system

arrangements present a major problem due to the size of the electric

drive motors.

(3) The three-system arrangement is lighter and less complex Than the

two-system arrangement.

A block diagram of the selected arrangement is shown in Figure 21, a schematic

diagram in Figure 22, and a list of major components in Table 18.

4.1 Scneral

The objective of the dcsign phase was to select the most competitive

combination of electrical actuation systems and electrical power systems for

transmitting power to those systems and for providing fly-by-wire control to

the flight control actuation systems that could be considered for the

1990-plus time frame. In keering w:ith the overall objectives ardrequirements, it was required that the selected electrical power system derive

its power primarily from the cngine through engine-drivEn electrical

generators and transmit that power through a distribution system of electrical

buses. The total secondary power system and actuation systems are definek. 40that a direct ccmparison can be made with the Baseline Airplane design

described in Section III.

4.2 Actuation Systems for the All-Electric Airplane

Two actuation types were considered for the All-Electric Airplane actuation

functions, i.e., Che electromechanical actuator (EI;A) system and the

integrated actuat.or package (IAP) system. Three EVA schemes were considered:the servomotor gearbox, clutched electrical actuation, and the Mirchanical

scrvo power pack.ge (VSPP). Also, three !AP concepts were considered: the

servopump concept, accumulator stored-crergy concept, and the f'.xed-

displacement pump concept. The IAP concept, however, was rejected for llactuation functions since in eacl" case it proved to be heavier than the

comparable EF' in most arpli-aticns.

Under a subconxract, AiResearch Vanufacturing Company of California assisted

in providing data for configurations of EVAs for the various actuation

functions. The results of their study effort is reportud in AiResearch

Docunent Uo. 80-17284 (Reference 1).

Data obtained from PiResearch along with data obtained from other suppliers

was used to arrive at a selection for the actuation system for each of the

flinct ons. Table 19 summar-zes the selected systems for the airplane flight

controls and Tables 20 and 21 for the non-flight control functions. Figure 23

shovs the location of the actuation systems in the aircraft and Figure 24

sshows how these actuators are integrated into the aircraft. Each of the

individual applications is covered in the follov.ing paragraphs.

For each actuator application that utilizes a DC brushless motor, a separate

controllhr/invcrter is required. During Phase II, various methods for

packaging and cooling these units v ere investigated. The original packaging

concept decided upon was an ev6porative cooled configuration in which the

electronics t.ere installed in a circular container filled with a fluid cooling

mredium. However, after sizing the various controllcr/inverters to the

individual actuation requirements, it was found that the units were very

heavy, with approximately half the weight being due to the fluid cooling

mediun. Therefore, another packaging and cooling method was devised in which

the heat-producing electronics are mounted on a cold-plate through which a

cooling fluid is pumped. The difference in these packaging concepts in terms

of volune and weight is indicated below:

200 672 48.C 225 14.2

PIthough the volume and weight saving with the cold plate cooling concept is

rimprcssivc, some of these savings must go back into the liquid ccoling system

required to support this concept. The liquid cooling systun is described in

paragraph 4.9A4.

Configuration studies were continued after completion of Ptase II and have

resulted in the following actuation system chantes which are reflected in

Tables 19, 2C, and 21:

The rationale for thpsp changes is covered in the following raragraphs which

cover these functions.

4.3 Flight Control Actuation

4.3.1 Canard

Actuation trades considered the tvo canard surfaces interconnected as well as

separated, as was done for the Daseline Airplane. The selectEd configuration

is a ballscrew actuator driving each canard surface (not interconnected). ThI

redundancy requirenents as specified in Table 4 are met by using three motors,

magitetically SuLmed on the same shaft, to power each actuator. The motors are

sized so that with one motor failed, the rcmaining two motors can power the

actuator at rated load and speed. The configuration is shown in Figure 24

View A-A, and was selected for the following reasons:

(1) Significant weight say ig over the other two types of FYP and the TAP

configurations.

i t 85

Page 110: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

(2) Deleting the interconnection between the two canard surfaces savesweight and reduces complexity. The added actuation redundancy for

separate surface control has minimal weight impact since no

additional control capability is added in terms of increased power.

The actuation system for each of the two canard surfaces consists of the

following components.

Ball screw Actuator 38.0 pounds

270V OC Potor (3 required @ 8.0 Ibs) 24.0 pounds

Controller/Inverter (. required @ 7.7 lbs) 23.1 rounds

Total Weight per SurfAce 85.1 pounds

4.3.2 Elevcns

Actuation trades considered a hingelinr actuation system, a body-mounted Foier

drive unit (PDU) and hingeline gearbox configuration and an IAP. The body-mounted POU, consisting of tw motors and a torque sumrrmd g.rh ', a0ong ifit-

a hingeline rotary gearbox shown in Figure 24 View F, is the selected

configuration for the following reasons:

(1) Less weight than hingeline EIP and IAP configurations.

(2) It is the oply configuration considered that fits within the

available envelope.

The actuation system for each of the two elevon surfaces consists of the

following components:

PDU/Pingelinc C-earbox 70.0 pounds

270V DC Pot, r (2 required @ 13.7 lbs) 27.4 pounds

Controller/Inverter (2 required @ 24.5 lbs) 49.0 pounds

Total W eight per Surface 146.4 pounds

4.3.2 Rudder

Two ERIA configurations and three IAP configurations were eveluatcd during

86

S. .. . .. . . .I.iI i' -, •

Page 111: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

/Phase I I and the PUU/hingeline gearbox EPA system selected for the rudder

function because it has the least weight and complexity.

The actuation system for the rudder consists of the following components:

SPOU/Fingel ine Gearbox 39.C pounds

27CV DC Ivotor (2 Requir.d 0 10.5 Ibs) 21.0 pounds

Controller/Invertcr (2 Required @ 14.0 ibs) 28.0 pounds

Total Weight, Rudder Actuation System 88.0 pounds

4.3.4 Spoilers

A single hingeline motor/gearbox for each spoiler segment was seiected over

other concepts for the following reasons:

(1) Lighter and simpler than other EMA concepts (e.g., PDU in tody

driving hingeline gearbox through a torque tube; ballscrew linear

._ctuatnr)

(2) IAP offers no significant advantage over EPA actuation system

(3) A neat, compact installation is possible as sho%n in Figure 24

View F.

The actuation system for each of the four spoiler surfaces consists of the

following components:

PDU/i, ingcI ine Gearbox 10.0 pounds

270V DC Votor 5.0 pounds

Controller/Inverter 7.0 pounds

Total Weight per Spoiler 22.0 pounds

4.3.5 Leading-Edge Flaps

A single hingeline motor/gearbox for each leading-edge flap segment was the

selected configuration for the same reasons as listed for the spo'ler

application, paragraph 4.2.4. Synchronization of the flaps is accomplished

electrical ly.

87L ___

Page 112: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

he actuation system for each of the six leading-rdge flap segments consists

of the following comp, ents:

Hingeline Gearbox 34.7 pound:

270V DC Motor 6.5 pounds

Controller/Invc,'ter 8 5 pounds

Total, per flap segment 49.7 pounds

4.4 Engine inlet Control Actuation

4.4.1 Engine Inlet Centerbody

Only linear actuation concepts were considered since the centerbody gCom~try

and operational requirements dictate the use of a linear actuator. The

configuration selected is a linear ballscrew electromcchanical actuator showii

in Figure 24 View V.

(single motor plus planetary gearbox package) operating each pair of doors.

The actuation system for each of the four pairs of bypass doors consists of

the following components:

4.5 Landing Gear end Brakes

4.5.1 Vain Gear Retraction

The main gear retraction system consists of a linear ballscrew actuatorpowered by a 27CV DC motor for each main landing gear. A separate controller/inverter is provided for each motor. This arrangement differs from theconfiguration selected during Phase Ii since it was powered by a 400 Pz ACmotor. The weight difference is negligible, however, since the weight of theAC motor is nearly identical with the combined weight of the 270V DC motor andthe controller/inverter. Installation of the main gear actuator is shown inFigure 24 View R.

The actuation system for each of the tme main landing gears consists of the

following components:

This paragraph describes the liquid cooling system needed to provide cooling

for the controller/inverter.

92

Page 117: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

Due to redundancy requirements in the flight control system, three seraratc

cooling loops are requir2d. Heat loads have been divided among the three

loops !s equally as possible and the components sized accordingly.

4.10 Secondary Power System

1he Secondary power system for thei rlectric Pirplane is the Electrical

Poe,*r System.

4.10.] Electrical Power System

The electrical poeer syscem was designed to meet the requirements of power

quantity, power quality, and source redundancy for the power-by-wire flight

control actuators and fly-by-wire control of those actuators, as well as thc

weapons systems, avionics, fuel control, and other utility systems that

conventionally use electrical poker. The generators also shall serve as

motors for engine starting.

The objective in this phase of the study was to select the most competitive

combination of electrical power generation and distribution system components

that could be considered available in the 1990 plus time frame.

Before selecting the electrical system configuration, a comparison study tas

made to select the specific starter-generator and power conditioning equipment

type to be used in the final trade study. Three basic concepts were

considered for processing the raw power (wi!d frequency, wild voltage)

delivered by the generator:

1. Convert all of the power to regulated 120/208 volts, 400 Hz, and then

rectify the desired portion to 270 volts DC.

2. Convert the desired portions of power from generated voltage and fre-

quency directly to 270 volts DC and 120/208 volts 400 Hz.

3. Convert all of the raw power to regulated 270 volts DC and then

invert the desired portion to 120/208 volts, 400 Hz.

The electrical power system configuration selected during Phase II is shown in

Figure 26. This configuration met the electrical load profile shown in Figure

27. However, a major concern with this configuration was the relatively large

weight of the cycloconverters (a total of 210 pounds for the 2 units). This,

plus the fact that the rectifier bridges were lightly loaded, caused the

question: Mhy can't loads be moved frcm 400 Hz AC to the DC busses, the cyclo-

converters eliminated, and the remaining AC requjirements met by smallia.-+arter?

The electrical load analysis was examined and the following loads identified

as those that could be powered by DC instead of 400 Hz power:

Therefore, of the 99 kW. of connected load supplied by 400 Pz AC in the Phase

II configuration, all but 2.2 kW could be supplied by DC, either 270 or 2e

volts.

These results encouraged further consideration of the pov;er system change to

the extent that the total electrical load analysis was revised (see paragraph

4.10.1.1), equipment changes identified, and estimates made of electrical

system and cooling system impact. This Ikd to the following conclusions:

1. The maximum continuous 400 Hz load requirement is 2.0 kk in the

CRUISE flight condition.

2. The maxiinum continuous 28V DC load requirement is 2.9 k0. in the

TAKEOFF and LAND flight phases and less in other flight phases.

3. There is no significant change in total ovcrall pover requirement.

4. There is a reduction of 2(- rounds in total eouipT, eot veijht and d

reduction ef 142 pounds in major electrical power system coxnponents.

5. The effect on the liquid cooling system is a 5 pound w'eight increase.

The net weight saving of 165 pounds was sufficient reason for making this

change in the slectrical power system, but other considerations serve to

reinforce this de.cision. First, the rectifier bridges are already of

sufficient capacity to handle the additional 27CV DC loads (they were sized by

the engine starting recuirement). Se-ond, the rectifie, bridges are more

efficient and less ccrmlex than the cycloconvertcrs, resulting in lower losses

and increased reliability.

It was concluded that the configuration change was most desirable and

therefore it was made. restlting in the schematic diagram shown in Figure 28.

Power distribution for the actuation systems is shown in Figure 29.

5.1 Trade Study Pcthodo~lcj

5.1.1 Ppproa h

The trade study was conducted in accordance with the following outline:

a) Identify alternative airplane configurations to be evaluated.

b) Identify trade study ground rules.

c) Identify parameters to be considered in evaluation.

d) Assign v.eighting factors to each parameter.

r) Perform evaluation of alternatives.

f) Calculate weighted value totals for alternatives.

The parameters evaluated ircludEd:

EPVC/Lightning Protection

Eniironmcntal Constraints

Initially it v:as planned to assign welghting factors to each of these

evaluation parameters by comparing each against every other parameter and

judging which is the most important. HQwever, this could rot be done because

the relative importance of each was dependent on many factors that v:xre not a

part of this study and different applications of a given equipment item on the

swme Oirplane coula have a different relative importance. For example, weight

may be the greatest single overriding factor in selecting a cerzain actuator

for landing gear aCtudtion whereas, survivability may be the most critical fcr

Therefore, the trades of each parameter were made between the al ternative

airplane configurations that were idcim'ifiLJ but the relative importance of

each parameter was not assessed.

5.1.2 Ground Rules

The comparison of the Baseline ano All Electric PirFlane was made using the

following ground rules.

It was assumed that all technological devclopments necessary to bring the

various components and systems to the point vhcre they would be ready for

application to the study airplane would be completed by 1090 and the cost of

these developvents is not included in this trade study. The program for the

development of this aircraft would begin with the rclease of a request for

proposal in 1990 with an aircraft initial operational capability in mid to

late 1990's. The airplane woulc have a service life of 10,L00 flight hours

and capability for 6,000 landings. The airplane would be designed for a 52

minute flight duration inciuaing tdkeoff, climb and cru'su daid 25 ,j-,,utcS for

loiter, descent and landing. Both airplanes are assumea to be fly-by-Wire.

The life cycle costs (LCC) .wrc estimated for peacetime operation only using

fiscal year 1981 dollars. The airplane would be operational for a period of

15 years, and utilize 288 flight hours per year. The airplanes would be

grouped in squadrons of 24 units each. The LCC were computed for prcduction

quantities of 500 and 1000 units.

The LCC computations were done using the FCA PRICE Iodel eri PRICE L Vodcl.

The LCC are computed based on the quantity of components, weight of

components, amounts of structure, amounts of electronics (whiere applicablc)

complexity factors for engineering design, complexity factors for structure

and electronics mandfacturing, and density of electronics (where applicable).

A detailed explanation of the RCA PRICE and PRICE L models ;s in Paragrapn

5.4. Inputs are included in Appendix A so that the results achieved can beduplicated by a user. The RCA PRICE Podel calculates the RDTSE. Productioncost, and creates the YiDF file for use in the PCA PRICE L P'odcl w.iere the

operations and support costs are calculated for the LCC. The U&S cost

115I

Page 140: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

includes mainly the supply (parts) and labor (maintenance) for the rerair of

an LRU. These costs are lower than would be achieved by a dedicated

maintenancc organization. In addition the LCC includes the cost only of the

Baseline Airplane and the All-Electric Airplane. Crew, fuel, and all other

systems normally included in a total aircraft LCC analysis are beyond the

intended scope of this study and not included in this analysis.

5.2 Weight

The weight analysis of each airplane is limited to the actuation systems,secondary power systems, and the structural provisions to accoamodate these

systems. T'e other systems and components that are identical in each

airplane, e.g., avionics, fuel, propulsion, ,tc., are eliminated from the

analysis for simplicity.

Table 26 shows the weight summary for the two airplanes, Table 27 shovs the

weiqhts for the actuation systems for the two airplanes and rable 28 shows the

weights for the secondary power system& for the tt, airplanes. 5ourcc of the

data in each case is shown on the Lable.

5.. Reliebilit, and Vaintainability

Reliability Evaluation

An assessment of the reliability of both the Baseline and All-Electric

Airplanes was conducted. Two parameters here used to compare the two

airplanes. These were the probability of mission success and the probability

of aircraft flight safety. These probabilities vwere ccmputed as follows. The

minimumi cquipment lcvyis (h'EL) for each subsystem for both mission comPlction

and aircraft safety were defined and are smunarized in Table 29. Fault trees

were tnen constructed for both airplanes for loss of mission and loss of

aircraft. TKsr fault trees were developed down to the individual failure

event that contributed to the top event. Certain failure contributing systems

which were common to both airplanes were , t considered in the computation

since their effects would have the same effect on both airplanes. Pn exwmple

of this would be the FBW cof mmand signals since both airplanes were assumed to

Figure 32. The detail fault trees are included in Appendix A.

Failure rates usel as inruts to the fault trees were derived from direct field

experience data, suppl]ei :cdictions and failure rate tables (such as RADC's

Nonelectronic Parts Reliability Data, 1978) in that order of preference. When

* failure rates of equivalent components in F'ilitary or commercial transport

aircraft vere used, the failure rates were multiplied by a factor of tio to

convert then to the fighter failure rates.

The in'formation thus obtained, was then entered as input data to a computer

program, Simplified Computer Evaluation of Fault Trees (SCEFT), which computed

the probabilities of loss of mission and loss of aircraft and thus provided

the relative reliability figures for the Baseline and All-Electric Pirplanes.

These reliability figures are not a comprehensive set of numbers but are just

to provide a relative measure for evaluating aircraft O.ith the two types of

actuation and secondary power systems.

The computed reliability figures are as follofr s:

An a!;sessmcnt of the maintainability cf the actuation and secondary pouer

comparison was made on the basis of the Pean-Time-Betv.ten-Fuilure (IfTBF) ofthe two airplanes' actuation and secondary power systems. The design of the

RCA PRICE Program. The details of the input data used to obtain the MTBFs for

the various comr nents is discussed in Paragraph 5.4. The date otained on

the individual components was then combined to obtain the VTBF for the

actuation systems and secondary power systems for the two airplanes as shown

in Tables 30 and 31. The MTBF for the liquid loop system design to provide

cooling to the El. actuation system controller,' invcrters in the ANl-Electric

Airplane was also computed and is shown separately in the table below. There

was no comparable requirement in the Baseline Airplane.

Ihe abiiiTy of the airplanes tu o~ertate autonomously is enhanced b y *thC

capability to perform ground mairtenance and system checks without having to

run the engines. In the Baseline Airplane the pover extraction from the

engines is accomplished via the AI'ADs. This arrangement allows a ground check

of the secondary power system via the IPU wthout having to run the enginces.

For the All-Electric Airplane the power extraction is accomplished via the

engine spinner-mounted generators. Here the secondary power system checkout

will not include the generatr'vs mounted on che engine spinnlers. However, due

to the cross switching capal." :e, available in the electrical power system

all the equirment dow:nstrear, frc,- the engine generators can be checked out via

the IPU mounted generatcr. The generators selected for this airplene are

permanent mijnet generators. These generators contain no rotating rectifiers

which are the components most likely to fail, thereby requiring the generators

to De checked out. Therefore, the lack of the abil;ty to operate the main

generators without running the engines is n3t a serious drafrback for the All-

Elecýric P -lane.

5.4 Life Cycle Cost

Life Cycle Costs (LCC) were estimated for the actuation systcns and secondary

power systems for both the Baseline Airplane and the All-Electric Airplane, jincluding costs for integration of the systems with each other. The LCC

includes RDT&E. Production, Suppert Investment, and Operating ard Support

Costs. Th, LCC plan for this study is illustrated in Figure 33. Subsystem

design vas sufficient to estimate weights and volume of the individual Line

Replaceable Units (LRU) for input to the cost model.

Pore detailed cost data would require preparation of procuremEnt

specifications to obtain detaileo supplier cost estimates. In addition, ix

would require an increase in detail design to refine airplane provisions and

installation details of the LRUs. This level of detail was considered to be

beyond the scope of the Preliminary Design nature of this study and therefore

the cost model was run at the LRU level .

The use of LCC, including operating and su.port costs, is th,Ž preferred

approach for cost effectiveness analysis in this stud3. Essentially, it

allows consideration of the trades between development and production costs,

maintainability, reliability and survivatility.

5.4.1 Cost ýYodel

The LCC. model used in the airplane actuation trade study was the RCA Program

Review Of Information For Costing And Evaluation And Life Cycle Cost Vodel

(PR ICE L).

Cost elemients included in the model are described below.

5.4.2 RUT & E Costs

The development cost element in LCC includes those efforts required to decvlorp'reviouJsly undeveloped or partially developed ccmnponents/systeirs. The studypresupposes that the rew technologY items identified as req~uiring further

development will have received the required development funding prior to the

technology ava ilability date (1990) of this airplanE. Therefore, these costs

are not included in the ROT and E. Involved are: (1) the research into Whiatis requi red, what exists, how it will function, and how it 1,ill interact with

the system; (2) the design which is the engineering required tc mechanically

c 1i ur e c n ,n .-, d(-1 h teest and ev;%Il ut inn fn Cp thalt cerfomiancemeets the required specifications. Production non-recurring tooling and testequipnent are part of this effort.

1.4.3 Production Costs

Production costs include the materials, labor, quality control, recurring,tooling, planning, and program management efforts required for mnakirg thecomponents/systems for a givcn quantity buy. The production units may be

produ'ced inhouse (make) or procured outside (buy).

5.4.4 Support Investment Costs

Support investment costs include initial spares, ground support equipment,data, training, and other.

5.4.5 Operating and Support Costs

Operatiny and support costs 4rclude those efforts required to operate and

133

Page 158: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

maintain an airplane/system throughout its operational life. Vaintenance

support costs are significant costs and include the effort required to repair,

rework, and replace parts at the operational level defined by the government.

5.4.6 Cost Estimating Technique

The PRICE L cost model has been used to estiirate engineering development and

manufacturing cost of electronic, electromechanical, hydraulic, and mechanical

components. Numerous estimates using the PRICE L cost model were made to

verify its accuracy. It was calibrated, when appropriate, with vendor quotes

or by judgment based on historical data.

Support investment costs were estimated using the PRICE L cost model. These

costs include support equipment end initial spares that were estimated based

upon the logistic concept consistent with a 1990+ time frame.

Operating and support costs were also estimated using the PRICE L Vodel. PRICE

L cperates at the Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) level ar.d provides ,n efficient

method for developing operating and support costs at the time of hardvare

estimation. PRICE L allows evaluation of many logistic concepts in addition

to reliability, maintainability, and weightt.

Figure 34 presents a flow diagram of the inputs to the RCA PRICE Model and

Figure 35 shows the development and production inputs required to calculate

the cost of an LRU. A compilation of all the basic inputs that were used in

the PRICE ?'odel for this study is included in the Pppendix. Figure 36

presents the inputs used for running the PRICE L ,Model. Table 32 presents the

values calculated in the Operations and Support Cost portion of the PRICE L

?todel. Table 33 shows the LCC cost of a typical LFU in the study.

5.4.7 LCC Data

A summary of the LCC study results is presented in Table 34 and Figure 37.

The LCC savings of the All-Electric Airplane over the Baseline are $13P. for

500 aircraft and $23M for the 1,000 aircraft program.

AIthough the total actuation system cost of the All-Electric Airplane is

greater than the-Baseline, the savings in the All-Electric secondary pov.er

system make it more cost effective overall.

5.4.8 LCC Zensitivity

A series of sensitivities were run to determine the sensitivity of the

engineering judgments or the inputs for an LRU in the RCA PRICE frodel. Runs

change in cost.

Engineering Complexity is used in the RCA PRICE prcgram to scope the

developnent effort and to develop the amount of calcndar time (in months)

deemed necessary to complete the first prototype. For instance. a 1.C

signifies a new design within an established product line, ccntinuation of the'

state of art, whereas a 1.6 signifies new design different from established

product line, requiring in-house develop•ent of new electronic components or

material s. The effects of these factors on ROT and E cost and tctal LC.C are

illustrated in Figure 40 and 41 respectively. Some changes in inputs affect

all elements of cost, vkiile others affect only one elemeýnt. Engineering

development complexity affects developnent cost as can be seen in Figure 40.

However-, manufacturing cost ana operations and support cost remain

approximately the same as can be seen in Figure 41. Other sensitivity runs

were madE on an individual LRU (the controller/inverter for the canderd) with

results as ciscussed in the following paragraphs. Figure 42 illustrates the

effect on LCC of a plus and minus 50% change in weight of an LRU and Figure 43

shows the effect on LCC of a change in engineering cctnplexity of an LRU.

Manufacturing Complexity of structure is usually ar emrerically derived value

that repesents the rroduct's produ~ibility. For instance, for an alum~inum

machined part a factor of 6.31 is used. and for ,i aluminum forging a 5.77 is

used. This factor defines the material, finished density, and fabrication

methods. Mranifacturing ccinplceity of electronics is a complexity factor whiCh

is a function of its components, packaging density, manufacturing, testing,

and power aissipation. For instance, a poier s.;pply composed of discrete

components is assigned a fact oi: 6.941 and an LSI a factor of 7.368.

Manufacturing ComplLAity Factors, as can be seen in Figure 44 and 45, affect

LCC cost both fur structural and el :ctrical hardware. ihese figures show that

cost growth for complexity is steeper for electronics than structural hardwa-e.

New Structure and Vew Electronics defines the degrce of new design required

for the structure or el.,ctronics assembly that is unique. A factor of C.M

indicates that 1C% of the drawings are new. ,•ew Structure and New Electronics

values only affect thc devclopnent cost, as can Le seei in Figurc 46 and 41.

The precenlage of new structures and electrronics does not affect the

prooucton and iiife cyCIV cost.

Electrcnic and structural next-higher-assembly-inteqrat'on cost factors have

no effect on LPU LCC cost.

-CC sensitivities could have been ruin for the schedule factor bul the

• ,as assigned prior to the accomplishr'ert of Thase : and the schedule

defined as 1990. The physical en ronmnnL was aiso defined and no

Sty vs LCC sensitivities were perforned,.

5.5 StructUral integration

Fro•m a structural integration point of view the El actuators may pro'iac an

"advanzage over the hydraulic actuators- 'his is because in most cases th:

most rltimutii method of actuation in hydraul ic cases is usually thE linear

piston actuators. However, this may require out-of-contour fairings, or bell-

crank mechanisms to couple to the su.'facu buing driven. In 'che case ot Eli

actuation, hingeline actuators can be designed to `it ,;4thin the wing

surfaces. Al so in the power extraction scheme .t•4 ized in the 2aseline

Airplane via pot,'er take-off shafts driving AVADs, the locaticn of the APAD

near the engines is desirable. This may be in an area where the fuel t3nk

•vuld need to be located for center of gravity cdjustments during variois

phases of the flight. P!so the structure has to be strengtheneu to support

the A.AD hardware. In tne case of the All-Electric Airplane, the power

extraction is done electrically via a starter/generator which also performs

the engine start function. The power conditioning equipment may be located

%here it will not interfere with the placement of the fuel tanks.

5.6 Growth

Pn Evaluation of the growth capabil itaes of the actt.ation and secondary power

systems of the Baseline and All-Electrit.A irpleres was conducted. The basic

design philosophy utilized in the sizing of hydraulic actuators is to meet th'e

specific recuirements of the surface actuation. The piston cross section andstroke is sized for maximum load/stroke characteristics.

In the Vw actuation systems the drive power is provided by "m-Co

permanent-magnet motors. The design of the motor is bi ;ed on the average

load. The motor can be driven to produce power levels above the capability of

the average rating for short durations. The limiting factor is the heat

generated undpr the various operating conditions. The motor windings should

not be allowed to exceed a temperature which COLld damage the stator v:irdings.

This capability allows the EV actuation to satisfy additional peak lo.-d

demands as long as the duration is compatible.

Hydraulic power systems are designed to meet military specifications such as

VIL-H-5440. For ex3mple, the recuirements for selection of cngiýr-oriver

hydraulic pmps states that "a sufficient number of engine-driven p'umps shall

be provided to assure operation of control surface boost or power systems...

Thus the sizing of Lhe systen is to assure that the basic requirements are

met. If additional load growth occurs, tre system would have to be resized.

On the other hard the sizing criteria for electrical power systems as

specified in PIL-E-25499 states that "... th_Ž aircraft shall havc a

multigenerator primary electrical system which ha, a maximui continuous kVA

160

Page 185: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

capacity of at least twice the maximum continuous electrical load of the

initial production aircraft." This sizing criteria allows for lod growth• capability in the electrical power systemn on both the Baseline and tne All-

SElectric Air,-lanes. Due to the higher capacity generators ýn the All-Electric

airplane, additional capability is available for shcrt durations.

5.7 Survivability/Vulnerabilit

Survivability is assessed by examining the ability of the airplanes to safely

withstand the following:

- Enemy action (combat survivability)

- All engines out

- Natural or induced enr ronmental extremes

- Cnboard system failures

- Faintenance errors

- Fliaht crew inaction or error

Although lightning is usually considered part of the "natural environment,"

this important subject is treated separately, along with electromagnetic

compatibility, in paragraph 5.8.

The integrity of either aircraft is highly dcperdent or 'ts powered actuation

systcms, especially those associated with th primary flight controls. A

qualitativc evaluation was made of the relative survivability of the Baseline

Airplane versus the All-Electric Airplane with respect to their

invulnerability to the factors listed above.

5.7.1 Combat Surv ivability

Technioues develored for enhancing electrical and hydraulic system.

invulverability to enemy action fall into three main categories as follows:

161

Page 186: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

(1) Design techniques for minimizing exposure so as to minimize the

probability of a hit

- Avoidance of high susceptibility areas

- Use of shielded locations

- Concentration and protection of critical components

- iniaturiztion of components

- Use cf armor systems

(2) Damage resistant design techniques which minimize loss of function due to

a hit

- Ballistic resistant materials and designs

- Fire/heat resistant materials

(3) Damage tolerant design techniques

- Redundancy

- Physical separation of redundant systems

Additional techniques that apply only to hydraulic systems are:

- Frangible actuators

- Actuator return - pressure relief devices

- Use of overboard drains

- Leakage protection devices such as hydraulic fuses and circuit breakers,

isolation valves, reservoir level sensing and isolation circuits, and

discriminating switching velves

- Reservoir considerations such as location, separation, and

pressuri zation

Survivability of either airplane derends to a large degree on the

invulnerability of critical systems to enemy action. In the Baseline this

includes not only the actuation portion of the system, but also the hydraulic

power supply to the system and the fly-by-wire electrical elements associated

with the system. In the ll-Electric Airplane, the vulnerability of critical

162

Page 187: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

systems is increased due to the added ýontroller/inverters and associated

cooling systems. On the other hand the wires supplying power to the actuation

syst-ins are slightly less vulnerable than the comparable hydraulic lines in

the Baseline Airplane due to their smaller size. Overall, the All-Electric

Airplane will require that emphasis be placed on the location and installation

of the inverters dnd their cooling systems during the airplane design to

insure the required level of survivability is achieved.

I--

5.7.2 Non-Combat Survivability

The hydraulic systems on the Basel ine Airplane of the 1090's should be

* comparable to hydraulic systems on current military aircraft relative to their

high invulnerability to natural environments, onboard failures of other

systems and equipment, maintenance error, and pilot and flight crew inacticn

and error. Pethods of preventing failure of more than one hydraUlic or

electric power system due to other failures, including engine or tire b'jrsts,

and for preventing maintenance and other human errors are highly developed.

Invulnerability to induced environments should be scmewhat better than current

aircraft with engine-driven hydraulic pumps mounted directly on encine-mountca

accessory gearboxes. The use of airframc-mounted accessory-dri'e (AMD)

gearboxes removes hydraulic pumps, valves, tubing, and hose from the high

noise, vibration, and temperature environment of the engine compartment. The

use of the higher (5,000-psi) system pressure should not i.itroduce much of a

problem for 1990-time period aircraft. There 4s a good backlog of successful

operation of aircraft system oreration at 4,0CC psi, and many industri il

systems operate at 5,000 psi. The Navy-sponsored testing at 8,000 psi has

been quite successful; and, it is predicted that development of 4,CCC and

5,000-psi systems for Air Force aircraft applications will be accelerated.

The electrical systems on both the Baseline and All-Electric Airplanes must be

designed to be invulnerable to natural environments, onboard failure'i" of other

systems and equipment, maintenance error, and pilot and flight crew inaction

and error because they supply the contiol and monitoring rower to the

fly-by-wire systems. In addition, the eluctrical system or, the ,'P-Electric

Airplane must supply all actuation power to a level of redundancy comparable

163

Page 188: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

to the fly-by-wire requirement. However, the limits on power irterruptions

are not as stringent for actuation power as they are for fly-by-%ire power.

The redundant actuators for primary controls on both airplanes are separated

as much as possible. The hydraulic actuators on the Baseline Airplane are

more jam tolerant while the EM actuators on the All-Electric Airplane are

susceptible to a catastrophic jam in the gearing.

Either the Baseline or the P11-Electric Airplane of the 090's should be

better able to maintain attitude control with all englines out than current

aircraft. Upon loss of engine po%er, the LCX/JP-4 integrated power unit (ID !)

can be brought up to speed in a matter of seconds (b.fore thz engines spool

down) to supply the hydraulic and/or electrical poeer requirements. This is

an important feature for an electric-command fully-powered-flight-contrul-

system airplane, especially with the high-byoass-raiio engine.s of the " ý,,re

which are expected to have poor windmilling power c-,jrability.

In trVe 1990+ time frame, both the Baseline atid the All-Electric Airplane will

be fly-by-wire airplane,; and will impose the same.!5igr~ail-1vel power

requirements on the electrical power system in terns of redundancy and

uninterruptible power. This is reflected in the two eiectrical Fovcr system

schematic diagrams, Figures 16 and ?8, where the ':light Critical Electronics

(rCE) buses provide Lninterruptible pow.r while the three 28V DC buses and the

battery provide the redundant power sources. All loads supplied by these

buses are signal level or low rower requirements.

The high puwer i.ctuaLion loads are sUpplied by the trirle hydraulic system i.

tne Basel ine Airplane and by the triple 270V DC bus s;sto, in the All-Llectric

Airplane. The third power source in the A- I-Llectric Air-plane is thc flight-

operable IPU generator which is started up whenever either rain engine drive!1

generator charnei fails. lherefore. the loss of a single power source or any

plausible single equipment failu•- ill not result in pen-.anent dEgradation of

flight control system performance below FCU Operational State I, or temporary

dcgr.-dation below FrS Operational State 11.

164

Page 189: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

5.8 ENC/_Lightninq9

The electrical power systems, digital systems, and electrical utilization

subsystcms for the two airplanes, and the electromechanical actuators for the

All-Electric Airplane are designed to achieve EKC within the operating

environments using the design guidelines of MIL-E-6051i, MIL-B-5087B,

!'IL-STD-461, and AFSC DH1-4.

5.8.1 EII

A gov. equipment EMC design approach encompasses the whole compatibility

problen from the circuit design concepts through the deliverable article. The

objective is the marriage of complex circuits and equipment into a compatible

system which operates within performance specifications in the specified

env ironment.

Attention is given to the sources of noise generation within any equipmEnt.Thi. ' ..C.ij .^S edfor • intentinnAl radiation as well as that not

specifically designed for radiation. Radio and radar transmitters may ccntain

spurious oscillations, harmonics, oscillators, or products of these

frequencies. Unintentional transmissions may result from broadband energy

generation such as switching transients, commutation, rectifier and diode

noise, and fast rise time wavcforms. These unintentional transmitters can

create very broad spectrums of high frequency components by a rapid change in

voltage and/or energy level. A rapid change of one volt is easily sufficient

to cause failure in meeting MIL-STD-461 UAI generation limits.

Equal attention is givEn the EDIC environment. Circuits and equipmcnt may be

susceptible to interfering signals from the external electromagnetic field

surrounding the installed equipment, signal input or output wiring, poker

supply waring, or electromechanical systems.

In evaluating LOC for this trade study, the major variable element between the

two airplanes is the addition of power-by-wire actuators and associated Oiring

on the All-Electric Airplane. Extra attention is given to these items since

electromechanical actuators using solid-state switching for external

165

Page 190: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

commutation of the drive motors generate EV!. noise that must be contained

within the motor controllers to prevent conducted noise from interfering witht

operation of other power utilizaticn equipment on the same bus, and to prevent

radiation to nearby signal and control wires. In the electrical povwer

grneration systems the output rectifier/voltage regulator network of a

permanent- magnet brus'less DC generator and the cycloconverter in the VSCF

system are both inhr ,tly EI generators. Hovever, since this has long been

recognized, the designs of these devices include adequate shielding and

fi1Mering to contain the noise within the generator/converter assembly.

5.8.2 Lightning Protection

The interaction of lightning with an aircraft, either by direct striKe or

near-miss, induces electrical transients into the aircraft circuitry.

rVilitary aircraft of the 1990's will contain significant amounts of compcsite

structure with poor electrical conductivity. In addition, the advanced

electrical power and fly-by-wire systems used in these aircraft contain many

solid state c(omrpoents. The cucibirdtivri uf the twu (rcduced Irnherentshielding effectiveness of nonmetallic materials coupled with circuit

components that have lower tolerance to electrical transients), presents

design problems in both the Baseline and All-Electric Airplanes. The problem

is intensified in the fll-Electric case due simply to the added number of

electrical circuits and wires.

Lightning induced transients present a hazard to electrical and electronic

systems that is met by providing an adecuate protection system. The

occuirrence of several direct lightning strikes plus many near-misses to a

given aircraft during its service life is a certainty. P direct strike to an

electrical circuit can result in considerable physical damage to the wiring as

well as to circuit ccmpcnents attached to the wires. If the circuit is not

struck directly, it will still have potentially damaging transient levels

induced by magnetic coupling to the lightning currents flowing through the

aircraft structure. These induced transients can have sufficient energy to

danage or at least upset solid state components.

The mechanism whereby lightning currents induce voltages in aircraft

166

Page 191: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

electrical circuits is as follows. As lightning current flows through an

aircraft, strong magnetic fields, which surround the conducting aircraft and

chonge rapialy in accordance with the fast-changing I ightning-stroke currents,

ar. produced. Some of this magnetic flux may leak inside the aircraft through

apertures such as windows, radcmes, canopies, seams, and joints. Other fields

may arise inside the aircraft when lightning current diffuses to the inside

surfaces of skins. In either case these internal fiids pass through aircraft

electrical circuits and induce voltages in them proportional to the rate of

change of the magnetic field. These magnetically Induced voltages may appear

between both, wires of a two-wire circuit, or betveen either wire and the

.irfranme. The former are referred to as line-to-line voltages and the latter

as com-.on-mcde voltages.

In addition tu these induced voltages, there may be resistive voltage drcFs

along the airframe as lightning current flows through it. If any Fart of an

aircraft circuit is connected anywhere to the airframe, these volitage drops

may appear between circuit wires and the airframe. For metallic aircraft made

of highly conductive aluminum, these voltages are seldom significant except

when the lightning current must flow through resistive joints or hirn:es.

Howeva:r, the resistance of titaniun is 10 timncs that of aluminum, so the

resistive voltagas in future aircraft emFioyinS these materials may be 1uch

higher.

lUpset or damage of electrical equipment by these induced voltages is defined

as an indirect effect. It )s apparent that indirect effects must be

considered alor.g with direct effects in assessing the vulnerability uf

aircraft electrical and electronics systems. Post aircraft electrical systcms

are well protected against direct effects but not so well against indirect

effects.

Until the advent of solid state electronics in aircraft, indirect effects from

external envirorrients, such as lightning and precipitation static, were not

much of a problem and received relatively little attention. No airwvorthine;s

criteria are available for this environment. There is increasing evidence,

however, of troublesoin, indirect effects. Incidents c' upset or damage to

avionic cr electrical systems, for example, without evidence of any direct

ii167

Page 192: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

attachment of the lightning flash to an electrical component are showing up inlightning-strike reports.

While the indirect effects are not presently a major safety hazard, aircraft

design and operations in the 1990+ time frame could increase the potentialproblem due to the following:

o Increasing use of plastic or compo3ite skin

o Further miniaturization of solid state electronics

o Greater dependence on electronics to perform flight-critical functions

Design of protective measures against indirect effects are being developed

under USAF contract F33615-79-C-2006 (Reference 8).

5.8.? Wire Routing for Lightning Protection

The primary reason for optimizing wire routing is to reduce the amount ofelectromagnetic flux coupled onto the conductors and therefore wiring is

S .. -...CL

Ls VuIiuz to the yrrundr plane or structurai freme. Exposed

wiring (e.g., wires underneath a leading cdge of a poorly conducting

material) is routed close to the metal structure. The amount of flux that is

coupled to a wire is proportional to the distance separating the two

conducting mediums. Wiring is locat~ed away from apertures (e.g., windows) andregions where the radius of curvature of the airplane frame cr outer skin is

the smallest. In particular, wiring is not routed across obvious slots (e.g.,

access doors). Where full shielding is required, the cable is routed in an

enclosed channel. Structural returns for exposed power wiring are avoided.

The primary threat to equipment is the conducted threat delivered to the

equipment by:

a. Exposed interconnecting wiring, or

b. Interconnectirg wiring attached to an exrosd element (e.g.,

windshie'h heater circuit).

The only potential threat which depends upon the fields in the vicinity of the

168

-Lý _J

Page 193: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

equipment is E-field coupling. I.e.. nearby electric fields may induce a

voltage upon the viring terminating in a poorly-grounded case. In order of

priority then, the rules for equipment placement are:

a. Equipment located to minimize exposure of interconnecting wiring.

b. Equipment located in areas w.hich are shielded from electric fields

induced by lightning; case well grounded to structure to minimize the

E-field coupling.

5.8.4 Power Equipment Protection

At the present time, there are no power system requirements governing the

suppression of lightning induced transients in the kilovolt range. If new

specifications are imposed requiring the equipment to w:ithstand the lightning

induced transients presently observed, filtering or shielding of individualequipment would produce additional height and cost problems in the overall

airplane design. However, by increasing the transient suppression requirempntin individual equipment from the present military specification of 600 volts

to 600u volits, the loss in electroniaynrLic I.roteCtion frT the usage ui

graphite composite materials would be less critical. A more viable solution

is to either prevent the transient from being coupled on to the power feedersor to suppress the transient so it does not appear at the main power buses.

Preventing the transient from appearing on the buses allows the use of

equipment icsigned to the existing pover quality standards. Iethods to limit

the lightning induced transients to levels below existing power quality 1*standards are being developed (Reference 8). These methods include wire

shielding, the use of TransZorbsT v, varistors, zener diodes, filters, and

surge arrestors, and the use of conductive coatings.

5.8.5 Airplane Comparison

Both airplanes are fly-by-wire and therefore require that particular attention

be given to the electromagnetic compatibility and lightning protection of

circuits and equipment associated with safety-of-flight. Pohever, due to the

additional electromerhanical actuators and electronic controllers,

considerably more design analysis and testing is required in the All-Electric

Airplane to insure safety under all operating conditions and logical failure

modes.

169

Page 194: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

In evaluating EMC for this trade study, the major variable elemcnt between the

two airplanes is the additior of power-by-wire ictuators and associated wiring

or the All-Electric Airplane. Extra attention must be given to these items

since electromechanical actuators using solid-state switching for external

commutation of the drive motors generate EMI noise that must be contained

within the motor controller to prevent conducted noise from interfering with

operation of other power utilization equipment on the same bus, and to prevent

radiation to nearby signal and control wires. In the electrical power

generation systems the output rectifier/voltage regulator network of a

permanent magnet brushless DC gcnerator and the cycloconverter in the VSCF

system are beth inherently EI gcnerators. However, since this has long been

recognized, the designs of these devices include adequate shielding and

filtering to contain the noise within the generator/converter assembly.

5.9 Environmental Constraints

Equipment on both the Baseline and the All-Electric Airplanes will have to be

designed to withstand and operate satisfactorily in the following

environmental conditions:

a. Temperature

b. Altitude

c. iiumidity

d. Salt Spray

e. Sand and Dust

f, Fungus

g. Thermal Shoc(

h. Vibrtion

i. Pechanical Shock

Hydraulic Systems

Hydraulic systems and components have been designed to withstand End function

under such environments for years. The one parameter which gives most concern

is high temperature. High temperatures, due to supersonic flight or due to

the use of hydraulic actuation of engine control functions such as variable-

170

Page 195: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

geometry inlets and exit nozzles, may require special fluids and sea]

materials which will not break down due to sustained therial exposure. tFany

supersonic aircraft, such as the F-1ll, F-14, F-15, F-16, F-18, and B-1, usestandard petroleum fluid per 1MIL-H-56O6 and standard Buna-N nitrile 0-ringseals. Other airc.aft, such as the B-58, B-70, and Concorde SST, weredesigned for use with silicate ester fluids and either special neopreneelastomEr seals or all-metal seals (B-70). The ?Each-3 SR-71 uses a synthetichydrocarbon with all-metal seals; and, the X-2CA (Dyna Soar) controlled-

reentry manned orbital space vehicle was also designed with that fluid andwith a combination of metal seals and high-temperature elastomeric seals. Th cengine-control hydraulic system on the B-70 was desigred with a cHlorinated

siliconE fluid and operated at some 6OO'IF fluid temiperature.

One distinct advantage of distributed hydraulic systems is that they areeasily cooled. The fluid return lines can be circulated through fuel tanks toconduct th.eir heat load to the lower temperat 'ure fuel, or through fuel-to-oilheat Pexchanciers to take advantage of the higher thermal film coefficients

caused by the flow of fuel to the etrgines.

Electrical Systems

Electrical power generation and distribution systems have been designied towithstand and operate in aircraft environments such as listed above.

Electronic equipment items have to be provided with adcquate cooling tomaintain internal temperatures at which the relijab ility of the sem~iconductorsare not impacted. Certain precautions are also necessary to locate equipmentin areas where it will not be exposed to extremes of the above listedenvironments. During the design of the aircraft, adequate consideration hasto be given to location of sensitive electronic equipment in areas where

ambient conditions will subject the equipment to a minimum of environmental

extremes.

In an All-Electric aircraft, the P? actuators will be located in areas whichwill be at one or more of the environmental extremes listed above. Pn example

of this is the location of EM actuators in the leading and trailing edge

surfaces of' the wings. H~ere the actuators are subjected to the temperature

171

Page 196: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

extremes (especially high temperatures at supersonic cruise conditions). The

worst case temperature in the leading edge is 275 0F at the upper surface. The

EM actuators must be designed to withstand and operate at these temperatures.

Temperatures in excess of these values may require that additional cooling be

supplied. Other environments such as salt spray, send and dust, vibration and

shock extremes will also impact the design of the EF. actuators. Although

these environments will impact the design of the EM actuators, none of them

are too severe to preclude the use of EP actuation.

5.10 Technology Risk

The Easeline Airplane secondary po%er generation system is similar to that

proposed for the Boeing supersonic transport and later incorporated in the B-I

and F-15 aircraft. The airframe-mounted accessory-drive (AfVAD) gearboxes are

well-proven designs *ich provide a great deal of operational capability.

They allow hydraulic and electric system checkout and operation on the ground

without operation of the main engines. The integrated power unit can drive

all of the hydraulic pumps and generators.

The LOA/JP-4 integrated power unit (IPU) allows fast engine starts both on the

ground and in flight at any altitude. It is currently under development by

the AFWAL Aero Propulsion Laboratory, Aerospace Power Division, Power System

Branch. It combines the performance of a bipropellant turbine power unit with

a conventional gas turbine APU and should be sufficiently developed for

aircraft use by 1985.

The hydraulic system pumps and other components are all based upon prover,

technology. Several aircraft hydraulic systems have been put into production

with 4,000-psi operating pressures, and many industrial equipments use

5,000-psi systems. The use of 15V-3Cr-3Sn-3A, titanium alloy for hydraulic

tubing has yet to be proven. It has an ultimate tensile strength of

20C,000 psi compared to 125,000 psi for the 3AI-2.SV cold-wvrked titanium

alloy currently in use, and offers a 37.5% reduction in dry weight in the

larger sizes. In the smaller sizes, 3/16 and 1/4-inch diameter, the same wall

gage (0.016 inch) as would be used with the 3AI-2.-V tubing was assumed.

Although the 15V-3Cr-3Sn-2Al alloy has yet to be applied to hydraulic tubing,

172

S. . . . . . ... . . .. .a_.

Page 197: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

its physical properties appear compatible to that application; and, it is

considered to be the material of the future.

The hydraulic actuation systems are all based upon proven actuator, hydraulic

motor, and electrohydraulic servovalve designs. The only unique features are

the use of valves to sequence the canard ram actuators and elevon ram

actuators in stages depending upon the imposed aerodynamic hinge-moment load,

and the use of digitally-controlled externally-commutated hydraulic motors

operating through a torque-sunmming gearbox for the rudder. These are two

types of load-adaptive actuation system arrangements being investigated by the

Boeing Vilitary Airplane Company.

Electromechanical actuator designs for the Pll-Electric Airplane include light-

weight low--torque high-speed electric motors along with high-ratio speed

reducing gearboxes and ballscrews. The electric motors require high enerqy

produc. Sm-Co permanent magnets. The availability of magnets with large

energy product.- (22 to 30 mcgagaussoersted)at reduced cost and increased

volume will be necessary. Increasing motor speeds will result in reduced

motor size arid ,%ei0:,c for a fixed pover requirement. Votors uscd in ths

study were in the range of 18,000 to 25,000 rpm. Ml•ile motor speed is notlimited by existing technology (units in excess of 100,000 rpm have been

built), there is certain risk associated with the motor and gear train

technology, especially when the actuator is to be utilized for random duty

cycle applications such as for primary flight controls. The gearboxes can be

jammed due to loss of lub-icant, gear wear, bearing wear, galling failure,

fretting corrosion, or tooth breakage. Improvements are needed in gearbox

design and overall acutation efficiency.

Electromechanical actuators of this type are being used on the Air Force/

Boeing AG• 86A (Air Launched Cruise Pissile) for the fin control. Electro-

mechanical actuators were also used on the Compass Cope remotely piloted

aircraft. However, these were low horsepower units.

The equipment used for electrical power generation in both the Baseline and

All-Electric Airplane is based on recently developed technology. The 60 and

150 kVA permanent magnet starter/generators have been built or are in the

173

Page 198: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

development stage under programs being conducted by the AFWPL Aerc Propulsion

Laboratory. A flight test of a 60 kVA starter/generator in conjunction Oith aVariable Speed Constant Frequency (VSCF) system is planned for the near

future. The Baseline Airplane power conditioning and distribution systemconsists of a 115V AC 400 Hz VSCF system. This type of system has alreadyflown on certain versions cf the A-4 and also the F-18 aircraft.

The All-Electric Airplane power conditioning and distribution is done at270V DC. This type of equipment is also under developnent under funding ofthe Naval Pir Development Center. The major risk involved in this area is incontrol, protection and switching of large currents at 270V DC and in theintegrity of the redundant pow.er bus. Development in this area is also being

conducted and saoe protection and switching hardware has been built anddemonstrated.

VI TECIIAOLOGY NEEDS

This trade study assumed a state-of-the-art existent in the 1990 time frame,and therefore concepts envisioned to be available in the 1990 time period were

exploited in the study. Consequently, there are inherent technical needsinvolved in the results of the study, based on the fact that a maturetechnology based was assumed.

Because of the years of experience and solid technology base that exists withhydraulic controls and actuation systems, and the lack of equivalentexperience, and therefore relatively weak technology base with electric

controls and actuation, there are greater technical needs associated with theAll-Electric Airplane. This does not mean that nothing needs to be advancedin the Baseline Airplane, but only that there are less risks involved inachieving the Baseline Airplane relative to the Pll-Electric Airplane.

The technology needs to achieve both airplanes are discussed in the followingSparagraphs.

I 6.1 Baselin Airplane Technology Needs

6.1.1 Actuation Systems

The use of load adaptive/stored energy actuation systems could significantlyreduce equipment weight and so the development of these systems should bepursued.

Pultiple-piston motors can be used in some applications with little or nogearing and could account for additional weight savings.

The development of a staged sequential actuation system would be desirable.In this concept multiple hydraulic ram actuators are ;.!qu•ntially controlledin a way which allows them to adapt their power demands to meet the magn4tudeof resisting loads and also to recover power frcm aiding loads. The advantagei.s that the demand from the supply pump is directly reduced by the number of

actuators in the group.

175

Page 200: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

Tht use of high pressure hydraulic systems contributes to a reduction in

hydraulic system weight. The developments required in this area are high

pressure pumps, seals, tubing, and fittings.

6.1.2 Special Hydraulic Component

The flexibility and reliability of z hydraulic power system can be improved by

the use of a high-flow bidirectional power trarsfer unit. This unit,

connected between two hydraulic power systems, can provide a second source of

power for each of the systems and therefore is a desirable technology

advencement.

The development of hydraulic fuses and circuit breakers will improve airplane

survivability by providing means to isolate failed hydraulic systems ard limit

fluid loss after sustaining physical damage.

Direct-driven single-stage servovalves are currently under developnent and

have the potential for reducing the internal fluid leakage and power loss

associated with two-stage valves. Additional developnent is needed, however,

to provide the driving force capability to overcome jamruing due to

contaminants in the hydraulic fluid.

The use of digitally-controlled stcpper-motor-driven rotary distribution

valves with hydraulic-motor-driven actuation systems and the use of stageo

sequentially-controlled valves with multiple cylinder piston actuators have

the potential for significantly reducing peak hydraulic system flow demands.

The potential gains warrant further development.

6.2 All-Electric Airplane Technology Needs

6.2.1 Motors

The availability of magnets with large energy products at reduced cost and

increased volume will be necessary for future servo systems. An energy

product of 22 x 106 gauss-oersted was used during the study. Energy product

magnets above the study value (30 x 106 gauss-oersted) with improved

176

Page 201: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

properties would be welcomed. The availability of such magnets in commercial

quantities wtill al'ow the development of smailcr, lighter motors, with higher

specific power and power-rate capabilities.

Increasing motor speed is desirable in that it reduces motor size and weight

for a fixed power requirement. For study purposes, an upper limit on motor

speed of 25 Krpm was used. While motor ;pred is not limited by existing

technology (units running in excess of 100 KrFm have been built), questions

concerning motor and gear train reliability ronain to be answered. This

concern is especially valid for random duty cycle machinery such as position

servos.

Numerous parameters must be specified during the motor design process.Attempting to satisfy ali of the actuation system requirements with an optimum

motor design is an exceedingly difficult engineering task. Frequently, motors

are overdesigned because of this; occasionally a motor is underdesigned

resulting in inadequate perforinarice or failure. Development of motor

selection criLeria or .gor......... -for srvo aprlications would be very

beneficial to the designer. Such tools would allow rapid preliminary design,

and expanded detail design capabilities for motor optimizaticn.

Maintaining the largest possible rotor lId ratio is desirable, in that it

minimizes rotor inertia, thus maximizing motor accelerdtion and power-rate. A

maximum I/d of 3:] was used as a design constraint durirg the study. Building

meters with such large I/d ratios, while feasible, is difficult. Improved

manufacturing methods permitting exploitation of favorable gecmetries is

1•vieýed as beirg desirable.

6.2.2 Electronics

Power FETs with the rcquired characteristics must be developed in order to

satisfy control and thermal management schemes. A suggested device rating of

50 anps is conservative, and should L, readily achievable during the next

decade.

Although judicious design of a power controller/inverter can avoid damage due

177

Page 202: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

to switching transients, the problem of inductive eneigy dissipation must be

dealt with. Bus-to-controller and controller-to-actuator line Inductance will

determine energy dissipation requirmlents (snubber circuit design) and motor

respont.e characteristics (electrical time constant). Both cf thcse inductance

sources will be driven by bus characteristics, and controller-actuator

location.

Additionally, over-voltage conditions due to motor over-speed (e.g., response

with aiding load) must be addressed. Again, controller/inverter design will,

provide a path for power flow and energy dissipation, but bus characteristics

will be a major factor in determining configuration.

Compact, reliable optical/electrical interfaces are currently available.

Iowever, application of these interfaces in FCS equilxnent has yet to be

demonstrated. The application of optical/elEctrical interfaces at the FCS

actuation system controllers, inverters, and actuators; and optical data

transmission between these assemblies must be evaluated and demonstrated.

Present micruprocessors are adequate for the proposed aprircation. increased

through-put capability and environmental operating conditions would be

desirable, from the standpoint of application and reliability.

6.2.3 Controller/Inverter Therm, al Management

Further work remains to be done in the areas of controller/inverter

optimization and analysis.

Long term usage of R-113, -11, or some other coolant must be addressed.

Resistance to chemical decompositior, and maintenance of a high dielectric

rating are neressary for application to controller/irnvcrter cooling.

A careful evaluation of the heat sink employed (air, fuel, or other) must be

performed for each application. The selection will impact the aircraft in

both weight and power demand.

Methods to reduce the internal thermal resistance of the semiconductor devices

178

Page 203: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

should be investigated. The internal thermal resistance contributes a

significant portion of the overall resistance between the junction and cooling

med imi.

6.2.4 Mechanical Components

Operating stresses of approximately 90 and 140 ksi were used for the gearheads

and hingeline drives respectively. These stress levels are at or slightly

ahead of the state of the art. The smaller hingcl ine drivc used for the

elevon, spoiler, and rudder would operate at a maximum stress level of

179 ksi. The drive would have a life of approximately 10,000 cycles at the

corresponding load (fully reversed cycling, 90 percent confidence factor).

Advances in material fatigue characteristics will be required, if the life or

confidence factor for designs such as the above are not adequate for a given

appl ication.

Th; impact of increased gearing speeds should be investigated. For the speeds

assumed during the study, oil sling lubrication would be necessary. This

could impose sealing and maintainability difficulties.

feasurement of drive stiffness, static and dynemic, is very difficult due to

the stiffness values, loads, and frequencies involved. Development of test

methods with repeatable (to within some scatter factor) results, vould lessen

* the al iost total dependence on calculated data.

6.2.5 Control

Improved sensors for motor rotor position and rate, and actuator position and

rate are necessary. Current devices have characteristics which lead to

vagueness during a change of state (step oLtputs) or nonlinearity

(proportional outputs). Sensors which provide a direct digital input would be

the most desirable, since PlD converters would be unnecessary. Optical

sensors would allow direct coupling to a controller bus.

In the event of a failure in one channel of a multi-motor actuator, control

179

Page 204: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

reconfiguration will be required. This requirement may be likened to a"multi-mode" adaptive control. Development of adaptive control schemes to

deal with actuation system failures will be necessary. Implementation of

adaptive control would also allow its expansion to full time adaptive control

for selected parameters.

Modern control theory has matured during the past two decades into a useable

control methodology. A considerable body of literature has developed, as a

result (Reference 6). However, due to unfamiliarity or computational

difficulty, most servo engineers have preferred to utilize classical control

theory for design purposes. The literature of modern control theory should be

reviewed for applications to servo design. A partial motivation for this

recommendation is that EM actuation control systems are inherently nonlinear;

and many of the components have nonlinear characteristics which dominate the

response. Podern control theory is much better equipped to deal withnonlinear control systems than is classical theory.

The design of digital (dsc,_s.., rnntrol .... r,. is ro more complex than analog

(continuous) controls; and as cerumon place as analog controls of ten years

ago. While the technology has advanced, relevant specifications have not

chan'ged (Rnference 7). A desirable advancement would be to update applicable

servo references and specifications to address both digit.1 and analog control

schemes.

6.2.6 Secondary Power System

In the area of secondary pov.er systems, studies will have to be conducted to

determine the best method of providing electrical power to EV actuation

systems. This will include effort in the following areas:

o Studies to determine the type of power to be generated and

distributed and the level of power conditioning needed.

o Type of generation system that would be most amenable to perform the

engine start function.

180

VII RESULTS AND CNCLUSIONS

7.1 Discussion of Pesults

The objective of the design etfort was to ensure that the actuation and

secondary power systems for both airplanes meet all the design requirements.

In the first phase of this program, actuation systems requirements for the

various functions were defined. During the second phase of this contract,

actuation systems were configured for the various applications to meet the

requirements specified in the first phase. Also during the second phase,

secondary power systems were configured to power the actuation functions, in

addition to meeting all the other airplane secondary power requirements. From

these configurations an optimum set of actuation and secondary povwcr systems

was selected for both the Baseline and All-Electric Airplanes. Boeing's

experience in the design and use of hydraulic ectuation systems, along with

that of leading industry suppliers, provided the basis for final configuration

selection for the Baseline Airplane. In the case of the EV. actuation systems,

the final selecticns wre 'ade tased on information suppii ,by the

subcontractor, AiResearch eanufacturing Company of California. AiResearch also

performed dnelyses of the flight control EP actuation systems to make sure

that these systems met all the rEquiremcrns srecified in the first phase of

this program. Thus, there was a good level of assurance that the two sets ofsystems that were traded in the third phase wuld meet all the performance

requirements.

A summary of the quantitative comparisons of the Baseline and A.ll-ElectricAirplane systems is shown in Table 41. The weight of the E" actuation systems

was about 20% higher than the weight of the hydraulic actuation systems. On

the other hand the weight of the secondary power system of the All-Electric

Airplane wa. 20% lower than that of the daseline Airplane. Overall the total

weight of the actuation and secondary power systems was about the same for the

two airplanes.

The comparison of the reliability of the two airplanes was done by computing

the rrobabilitles of mission success and aircraft safety. As can be seen from

Table 41 the results were quite similar in both cases. The measure of

rmaintainebility was evaluated by computing the mean-time-between-failures

(PTBF) for the two airplanes. The I'1lF for the hydraulic actuation systems

was almost th ce times higher than for the EtV actuation systems. Po ever, the

I IBF of the secondary power system for the All-Electric Airplane was about 50%

higher than that of the Baseline Airplane. This resulted in the overall

Baseline Airplane secondary power and actuation systems MTBF being 33% higher

than that for the All-Electric Airplane.

The life cycle cost for EM actuation systems was 16% higher than the hydraulic

actuation systems. On the other hand, the LCC cost of the secondary power

systeý,i for the All-Electric Airplane was 42% lower than the Baseline Airplane

secondary power systen. This resulted in the overall LCC of the All-Electric

Airplane being approximately 12% less than the easeline Airplane.

In addition to the quantitative analysis, the systems of the two airplanes

were evaluated with respecc to six other parameters on a qualitative basis. A

summary of this comparison is shown in Table 42.

The fact that electrical ystems are designed for twice the maximum averag9c

load capacity allows additional growth advantage in the All-Electric Airplane

secondary power system over the Baseline Airplane. From a survivability/

vulnerability standpoint, hydraulic actuation (where linear pistors are used)

is better than rF actuation since the simplicity of design of the hydraulicram actuators pr'cludes the possibilities of jamming that may occur in

lightveigh' gearboxes used on EM actuators. Electrical poWEr systems have the

capability of isolating an individual circuit which has failed and shorted

through thle action of circuit breakers. Similarly, hydraulic systems car bc

"fused and isolation provided to maintain system integrity should a hydraulic

line be broken or damaged, Especially due to weapons effects. Aircraft fires

can' be fueled by leakage of hydraulic fluid. MIL-H-5606 was used for weight

estimating purposes in this study. Fire resistant hydraulic fluid, currently

under development, is heavier and would add a weight penalty to the hydraulic

system.

The All-Electric Airplane will be more vulnerable to the electromagnetic

threats due tc eiectronagnetic interference (EPI) and lightning, especially

since future aircraft will be utilizing more and more non-metallic(fiberglass, composite) structures.

The All-Electric Airplane is also penalized if the EM. actuation and electrical

power systems have to operate in an ambient where high temperatures may exist.

The distributed hydraulic system has the advantage of using fluid to remove

heat from the actuators which can then be transferred by means of heat

exchangers to a suitable sink such as the fuel. However, on dead-ended

systems, or thos" that are inactive during flight, such as the landing gearactuation systems, thermal problems do occur (both overheating and freezing on

some missions) so special protective measures may be required. The systems

used on the Basel ine Airplane are a projection of a technology that has a highprobability of being achieved. In the All-Electric Airplane the projected

technology is higher risk with developiients required in the use of high

voltage DC, gearbox and motor design, electrical power" integrity, actuation,

redundancy management, and survivability of control designs.

7.2 Conclusions

Based on the results of this study it is concluded that an All-Electric

Airplane is feasible assuming that appropriate development is pursued. For al

airplane of the size and mission as that studied in this program, the weight

and the reliability/maintainability factors are about equal. A reduction inlife cycle cost in the secondary power system can be achieved by extracting a

single type of power (electrical) rather than by extracting tv.o types

(electrical and hydraulic). Voreover, this rcduction is not only adequate tomake up for the increase in Ei e. actuation LCC but also to provide a net overall

reduction over tr~e Baseline Airplane.

The other six fattors that were considered provided advantages and

disadvantages for both aircraft designs that offset each other to some exter..

Efforts to improve on the hydraulic actuation and hydraulic power systems arecontinuously being pursued by the military, aircraft manufacturers, and

systems vendors. Certain problems associated with ElV actuation and electrical

power systems are also being pursued. For example, developnent of EV

186

Page 211: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

actuators is being pursued by the same set of agencies listed above. One areaof concern is the high risk associated with the use of light weight gearboxes

in EY actuators, especielly for primary flight control actuation. A lowerrisk alternative is the intcgrated a, tuator package (IAP) which can be

utilized in the most critical applications of the primary flight controls,

thus allowing the achievement of an All-Electric Airplane.

Another area of concern is the vulnerability of fly-by-wire/power-by-wire

systems to electromagnetic threats due to EVI and lightning. Work is being

done to devise mnthods tc protect the electrical/ electronic equipient,

without undue cost and weight penalties. The F-16 is truly a FBEW airplane.

As is always the case with radical departure from tricd and true methods, the

F.16 has had its problems, but none that can be called insurmountable, The

FBW electronics are probably more vulnerable to EIFC/lightning effects than the

PEW or EM actuation systems, since the latter are operating at much higher

power levels and hence are less likely to be impacted by electrotragnetic noise

or transients. In any case, shielding techniques are being developed that arecxpectcd to Pr-vid-e the neressarv protection for both electronics LRUs and

actuators.

Considerable effort was expended in this study to ensure that the EM actuation

systems would not be subjected to excessive temperatures during supersonicoperations. For subsonic aircraft the additional cooling provisions for the EM,

actuation systcm controllers could be reduced considerably or even eliminated.

This would result in reduction of the EM actuation system weight, improvementin I/TBF and further reduction in LCC. A comparable cooling system requirement

does not exist in the Baseline Airplane hydraulic actuation system so the

mission change would not provide a comparable reduction.

It is also anticipated that for a much larger aircraft the weight differential

in the secondary power system could be greater. This wo.uld be possiblebecause of the relatively greater increase in the weight of hydraulic tubing

and fittings and the hydraulic fluid in the system. This wuld also result inadditional LCC reductions in the All-Electric Airplane.

187

Page 212: AIRPLANE ACTUA 0!ON TRADE STUDY

VIII RECOPMENDATIONS

This study was based on the premise that certain technology needs in the EM

actuation and electrical power systems will be fulfilled. These are:

distribution system

Also to be fulfilled are technology needs in the hydraulic actuation and pev.trsystems as follows:

APPENDIX B

RCA PRICE-L COST MODEL INPUT DATA

This appendix contains the RCA PRICE-L cost model inp'ut data for 500 Baseline

and All-Electric Airplanes. Tables B-i and B-2 contain data for the actuation

systems and Tables B-3 and B-4 are for the secondary power systems. The input

data for 1000 airplanes is identical except for the "Production Quantity

(QTY)" number on the input data sheet (see Figure 35). For 500 airplanes, QTY

is 500 times QTYNHA; for 1000 oirplanes QTY is 1000 times QTYNHA.
