摘要
The modern civil aircraft has the trend to utilize the auxiliary fuel tank to increase the range. This paper presents an optimization concept for fuel tank design to optimize auxiliary fuel tank placement in aircraft to decrease the aircraft empty weight. A model formulation has been created to satisfy the minimum fuel weight requirement and the aircraft center of gravity limit. To solve the fuel tank layout issue, the integer linear programming algorithm has been applied. In order to validate the concept a simulation model and different calculation cases have been built. The calculation results show that the method can effectively reduce the aircraft empty weight and can gain high benefits.
