5、ding AIR1678A Uncertainty of In-Flight Thrust Determination RATIONALE AIR1678B has been reaffirmed to comply with the SAE five-year review policy. FOREWORD In 1972, the Safety Standardization Advisory Committees of the SAE Aerospace Council, working with the SAE Propulsion Division suggested the nee

6、d for improved knowledge of aircraft propulsion system in-flight thrust. Later, the U.S. Air Force Aeronautical Systems Division independently made a similar suggestion. The Propulsion Division and the Aerospace Council concluded that the real need was to establish a forum where this subject could b

7、e discussed by knowledgeable experts on a technical basis. SAE undertook to do so. Dr. Robert Abernethy was commissioned by George Townsend, Propulsion Division Chairman, to organize the In-Flight Propulsion Measurement Committee E-33. Mr. Gary Adams, representing the Air Force, was also involved in

8、 organizing the E-33 Committee at this early stage. The first meeting took place in December 1978. The E-33 Committee endeavored to gather industry-wide expertise in in-flight thrust measurement and uncertainty analysis. The committee was organized into Subcommittees A/B which concentrated on thrust

9、-drag bookkeeping and thrust determination methodology and Subcommittee C which addressed the subject of thrust determination uncertainty. After reviewing the industry state-of-the-art, Committee E-33 determined that it would be appropriate to assemble and publish two companion Aerospace Information

10、 Reports. Subcommittee E-33A/B was organized under Chairman John Roberts to produce AIR1703, “In-Flight Thrust Determination.“ Subcommittee E-33C, under Chairman Gary Adams, produced AIR1678, “Uncertainty of In-Flight Thrust Determination.“ Together these reports provided a comprehensive survey of i

11、n-flight thrust determination, beginning with definitions and concluding with guidelines for planning a total program and estimating the measurement errors. The original version of AIR1678 was published in 1985 and later reaffirmed in December 1992. In 1996, Subcommittee E-33C under the chairmanship

12、 of Mike McGonigle undertook a revision to the document to bring it into compliance with other national and international standards, primarily ANSI/ASME PTC 19.1-1998 and the ISO Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement. This work was completed by the committee under the leadership of G

13、lenn Steele and published in 2002. Revision B continued this development and was completed in 2011. SAE INTERNATIONAL AIR1678B Page 2 of 77 INTRODUCTION Estimating the measurement error or uncertainty is an essential element in the complex process of evaluating in-flight thrust. During the pre-fligh

14、t planning phase, it is necessary to assess the accuracy of the candidate methodologies for determining in-flight thrust and to select those which best satisfy program requirements and resources. Estimation of measurement error defines parameter accuracy, data acquisition, and data reduction require

15、ments for the ground and flight test phases; and post-flight is used to examine the consistency of the test results with pretest predictions and with vehicle performance estimates. The purpose of this document is to provide information covering methods for estimating the effects of the measurement e

16、rror or uncertainty of in-flight thrust determination in aircraft employing conventional turbofan/turbojet engines. Methodologies beyond those presented are required in order to evaluate configurations such as vectored thrust or V/STOL. This document is intended to be used as a technical guide. It i

17、s not intended to be used as a standard or legal document. A companion document, Reference 2.1.1.1, presents information and guidance on the selection and use of methodologies to predict and assess propulsion system in-flight thrust. Both documents describe comprehensive procedures and tasks for imp

18、lementing the methodologies. Each program would select those tasks that are appropriate to meet its particular objectives. The term “in-flight thrust determination“ is used synonymously with “in-flight thrust measurement“ although in-flight thrust is not directly measured but is determined or calcul

19、ated using mathematical modeling relationships between in-flight thrust and various direct measurements of physical quantities. The in-flight thrust determination process includes both Ground Testing and Flight Testing, Figure 1. The mathematical modeling relationships between the in-flight thrust a

20、nd the measurements of the physical quantities are calibrated in Ground Tests. Error effect estimates for each item shown in Figure 1 are required to calculate the uncertainty of the “in-flight thrust measurement.“ FIGURE 1 - THE IN-FLIGHT THRUST MEASUREMENT PROCESS Ground Test Facility Measured Thr

22、NAL AIR1678B Page 3 of 77 The text is organized into the following major topics: Measurement Uncertainty Methodology (Section 4): This section describes the concepts involved in estimating the uncertainty of in-flight thrust. Its purpose is to provide a common basis for understanding. The methodolog

23、y includes the use of statistical and engineering concepts to meet the need for an easily interpreted estimate of uncertainty (References 2.1.2.1, 2.1.4.1). In-Flight Thrust Measurement Processes (Section 5): This section describes the ground test and flight test phases of the in-flight thrust deter

24、mination process. The five sets of fundamental error components which must be evaluated to determine the uncertainty of in-flight thrust are identified. Application of Uncertainty Methodology to the In-Flight Thrust Program (Section 6): The uncertainty methodology described in Section 4 is applied t

25、o the In-Flight Thrust Measurement Process described in Section 5. Four representative test program phases are defined, i.e., Program Definition Planning, Ground Test, Flight Test, and Results Analysis. The tasks to be accomplished in each phase are described in Reference 2.1.4.5 and shown in Table

26、8. Seven Appendices are also included: x Appendix A - Small Sample Statistical Methods Special, small sample, statistical methods are required to determine the value for the Students “t95“ distribution when the degrees of freedom of the result is less than 10 (Reference 2.1.4.2). This appendix discu

27、sses the t value, degrees of freedom, and the propagation of degrees of freedom. A table of “t95“ values is presented for degrees of freedom from one to thirty. x Appendix B - Impact of Measurement Process on Error Classification and Estimation This appendix discusses the decision logic for the clas

28、sification of error based on the actual measurement process. Reclassification is discussed and the concept of fossilized error is introduced. x Appendix C - Example Influence Coefficient Calculations x Appendix D - Initial Performance Survey of Thrust Measurement Options This appendix uses the publi

29、shed results of the Air Launched Cruise Missile Program to illustrate the approach for conducting an initial performance survey of thrust options. x Appendix E - Calibrated Mathematical Model and the Associated Uncertainty Components for Flight Test The term “calibrated mathematical model“ is discus

SCOPE

43、This document defines and illustrates the process for determination of uncertainty of turbofan and turbojet engine in-flight thrust and other measured in-flight performance parameters. The reasons for requiring this information, as specified in the E-33 Charter, are: x determination of high confiden

44、ce aircraft drag; x problem rectification if performance is low; x interpolation of measured thrust and aircraft drag over a range of flight conditions by validation and development of high confidence analytical methods; x establishment of a baseline for future engine modifications. This document de

45、scribes systematic and random measurement uncertainties and methods for propagating the uncertainties to the more complicated parameter, in-flight thrust. Methods for combining the uncertainties to obtain given confidence levels are also addressed. Although the primary focus of the document is in-fl

46、ight thrust, the statistical methods described are applicable to any measurement process. The E-33 Committee has endeavoured to gather industry-wide expertise in in-flight measurement and uncertainty analysis to collect and promulgate recommended practices in the subject disciplines. The Committee i

47、s organized into subcommittees to address both the analytical and test methodology for determination of in-flight thrust and also the uncertainty of the determination. This document; Uncertainty of In-flight Thrust Determination, AIR1678, addresses the process for determining the uncertainty of in-f

48、light thrust. A companion document, In-Flight Thrust Determination, AIR1703, addresses the basic methodology for determining in-flight thrust. The Committee, after reviewing recommended changes and clarification in definitions and application of statistical uncertainty items, made small revisions to the original documen
