Use of the parachute system for the collective rescue of passengers and aircraft crew

Abstract

This study covers the issues of the security system in civil aviation. The relevance of the topic is conditioned by a qualitatively new approach to the design of civil aviation, since the modern equipment has the means intended for rescue directly in the area of contact of an emergency aircraft with the ground. When hitting the ground, as a rule, the lower part of the airframe is crushed, the fuselages break in the centre wing section, and the interior equipment breaking off is very traumatic to passengers, the engines are extremely fire and explosion dangerous, which leads to an emergency situation developing into a catastrophic one. The purpose of the study is to investigate the existing security system of a civil aircraft and develop the modification of aviation equipment with the help of collective rescue systems. Two main areas of application of collective rescue systems in aviation technology are analysed. As a solution to the problem at hand, a modification in the form of a parachute system of collective rescue is proposed. A detailed description of the system operation with the use of the necessary calculations for weight, aerodynamic and similar costs is given. The system under study relates to aviation technology and can be used in the development of transport (passenger, cargo, business class, etc.) aircraft. The proposed modification would significantly increase the level of flight safety due to a preventive measure that would exclude the contact area of the emergency aircraft with the ground.
