Abstract:
|
This paper presents the simulation environment
developed within the framework of R-WAKE project, funded
by SESAR 2020 Exploratory Research. This project aims to
investigate the risks and hazards of potential wake vortex
encounters in the en-route airspace, under current and futuristic
operational scenarios, in order to support new separation
standards aimed at increasing airspace capacity. The R-WAKE
simulation environment integrates different components developed
by different partners of the R-WAKE consortium, including
simulators for weather, traffic, wake vortex phenomena, wake
vortex interactions and different tools and methodologies for
safety and risk assessment. A preliminary example is presented
in this paper, in which 200 historical trajectories were simulated
to show that the novel framework works properly. A WVE
encounter has been detected in such first scenario, however with
no significant safety effect on the follower aircraft. A second
controlled scenario has been then run to force the detection of a
severe wake encounter under realistic en-route conditions. Such
scenario has given evidences that confirm the safety relevance of
the underlying research concept. |
