JFK to LHR in LabVIEW
1.
2. Itinerary For this Labview Project we
chose to model a trans-
atlantic flight
The problem that we were
trying to solve was how fast
was a certain plane traveling
and how much fuel was it
using and how much did it
have left
3. We chose to use the Boeing 747-400
airliner as our example aircraft
The Boeing 747-400 holds up to
216,847.3138 Liters of Fuel
For this trip we will only use 65,336.20732
Liters of Fuel
At this rate the plane burns 11.76072915
Liters of Fuel per Km
To make the data easily visible we will
decrease the amount of total fuel on the
747 just like they do in reality
Airliners do not fill each plane up to full
capacity for a range extending flight,
which crossing the Atlantic Ocean is not
in this case
The total amount of fuel aboard this plane
for this particular flight will be 80,000
Liters
4. At rest the plane’s speed is 0 km/hr because
there is no distance traveled or time traveled
and so the fuel is at full capacity
Our Speed Equation: S = Distance / Time
Our Fuel Consumption Equation:
Fuel Level = (Full Tank – (Fuel Consumption Rate
x Distance) / Full Tank)) x 100
5. Plane At
Takeoff
When the plane begins to
move that’s when we can
calculate speed and fuel
consumption
At takeoff the length of the
runway is 4.442 km which is
our distance
The amount of time it takes
the plane to get down the
runway is 0.0153172414 hours
Our speed is 290 km/hr at
takeoff
The plane now has 79,947
Liters of Fuel left
6. At cruising speed the plane
travels at a constant speed
for the remainder of the
flight
This speed is calculated from
half of the total distance
traveled which is 2777.5 km
The time is half the average
time it takes to travel from
JFK to LHR which is 3.04 hrs
The speed is now 910 km/hr
At this moment the plane
has 47,334 Liters of Fuel left
7. Plane At
Landing
The 747 begins to slow down
during the descent and
approach its final distance of
5,555 km
It has flown for
approximately 6.08 hours
At the flight’s end, the 747 is
left with 14,669 Liters of Fuel
