AIRCRAFT BRAKE ENERGY ANALYSIS PROCEDURES

Abstract

The report describes a standardized method for analyzing and calculating aircraft brake energy requirements. The method is an adaptation of method II of MIL-W-5013 and requires exact inputs readily adapted to computer use. These methods were used in an analysis of the C-5A, F-111, and AMSA aircraft brake energy requirements. Programming the equations into a computer gave very satisfactory results. The methods can be used manually or by a computer to determine the braking energy requirements of any aircraft.
