Environmental Control for Civil Supersonic Transport

2024-05-06
WIP
AIR746D
This document supplements ARP85, to extend its use in the design of ECS for supersonic transports. The ECS provides an environment controlled within specified operational limits of comfort and safety, for humans, animals and equipment. These limits include pressure, temperature, humidity, conditioned air velocity, ventilation rate, thermal radiation, wall temperature, audible noise, vibration, and composition (ozone, contaminants, etc.) of the environment. The ECS is comprised of equipment, controls, and indicators that supply and distribute conditioned air to the occupied compartments. This system is defined within the ATA 100 specification, Chapter 21. It interfaces with the pneumatic system (Chapter 36 of ATA 100), at the inlet of the air conditioning system shutoff valves.

Lighting and Visual Information for Vulnerable Road User (VRU) Safety: An Introductory Review

2024-05-03
CURRENT
VRUSC-002-2024
Injuries and fatalities among pedestrians, cyclists, scooterists, highway road workers, and safety and emergency personnel—often referred to as vulnerable road users (VRUs)—continue to rise at alarming rates worldwide. Emphasizing the urgent need for enhanced safety measures, this study, commissioned by the Vulnerable Road User Safety Consortium™ (VRUSC) and conducted by the Light and Health Research Center at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, evaluates the potential effectiveness of lighting and visual information systems in improving VRU safety. The white paper presents a synthesis of published research on lighting and markings from the perspective of both human drivers and machine vision systems. It identifies potential preliminary guidelines for the intensity, color, temporal, and spatial characteristics of lighting and visual information that can help prevent crashes involving VRUs.

WIP
AS6285F
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the minimum requirements for ground-based aircraft deicing/anti-icing methods and procedures to ensure the safe operation of aircraft during icing conditions on the ground. This document does not specify the requirements for particular aircraft models.NOTE: Refer to particular aircraft operator or aircraft manufacturer’s published manuals and procedures.The application of the procedures specified in this document are intended to effectively remove and/or prevent the accumulation of frost, snow, slush, or ice contamination which can seriously affect the aerodynamic performance and/or the controllability of an aircraft. The principal method of treatment employed is the use of fluids qualified to AMS1424 (Type I fluid) and AMS1428 (Type II, III, and IV fluids).All guidelines referred to herein are applicable only in conjunction with the applicable documents.

High Flow Liquid Hydrogen Fueling Couplings for Aerospace and Heavy Transport Applications

2024-04-15
WIP
AIR8999
The SAE AE-5CH Taskgroup has determined that high flow liquid hydrogen fueling couplings need to be developed in order to fast fill aircraft at the airport. Though the flow rates from a current liquid hydrogen bayonet connect may reach the lower bound flow rates of regional aircraft, there are some shortcomings to this connector for aerospace. For this reason a new specification for flow rates for regional to narrowbody (and potentially later widebody) are to be developed in this documenet. Harmonization for lower flow rates (such as up to 20kg/minute) are planned to be harmonized with ground vehicle fueling such as with ISO 13984. Within this document,coupling descriptions including Flow rates from 84 to 200 kg/minute will be evaluated (and potentially higher), and requirements and testing and safety targets will be specified.

Design and Safety Criteria for Passenger Boarding Stairways

2024-03-22
WIP
AIR6133A
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is broken into various categories for convenience and ease of identification. It is the purpose of this document to provide certain criteria for the design and selection of stairways, for the boarding of passengers onto an aircraft. The criteria presented are limited to those factors which affect the safety of the passengers and are coordinated, where applicable, with the practices of the architectural profession, with respect to the design of stairways. Comprehensive design requirements for passenger stairs can be found in the industry documents listed under 2.1.3, 2.1.4, and 2.1.5 hereafter. The recommended practices are applicable to both mobile variable-elevation type stairways and to fixed-elevation stairways of the type built into an aircraft fuselage.
