Abstract

Arrival and departure capacity evaluation in terminal area based on air leg intersection

Author(s): Wang Jianhui

Capacity evaluation is the key part of airspace fine management. Only the correct evaluation of the runway, terminal area and air route capacity, can be a reasonable scheduling of flight, reduce flight delays and traffic restrictions, also raise airspace utilization rate. On the basis of research flying aircraft characteristics of the terminal air leg intersection, we set up capacity evaluation model respectively in accordance with two flight status such as convergence arrival and dispersal departure. Finally we select the terminal area Wuhan Tianhe and Guangzhou Baiyun airport as a specific terminal area capacity evaluation, combined with its airport rules and flight schedule published data, verify the effectiveness of the evaluation scheme.
