Fuel savings through missed approach maneuvers based on aircraft reinjection
Humanity is facing global challenges related to climate change, along with an energetic crisis that urgently requires optimizing any process or system able to improve global economic conditions. Taking fuel as an example, its prices are among the highest increases detected in goods of general use. In this sense, initiatives to mitigate fuel consumption are both welcome and necessary. In the aerial transportation area, fuel costs are critical to the economic viability of companies, and so urgent measures should be adopted to avoid any unnecessary increase of operational costs. In this work we study the costs involved in a standard procedure following a missed approach. In addition, we study the improvements achieved with a fast reinjection scheme proposed in a prior work. Experimental results show that, for a standard A320 aircraft, fuel savings ranging from 55% to 90% can be achieved through our proposed method.
