Descrizione del progetto
Modelli e metodi di prossima generazione per la stima del rumore e degli inquinanti generati dai velivoli
Il trasporto aereo è una parte cruciale delle soluzioni di trasporto e logistica odierne. Tuttavia, è necessario ridurre le emissioni e i danni ambientali generati da questo settore, nonché introdurre innovazioni ecologiche. L’UE sta cercando di raccogliere dati affidabili e precisi sulla previsione delle emissioni prodotte dagli aeromobili, sia in termini di rumore che di inquinanti, allo scopo di migliorare le politiche in materia. Il progetto NEEDED, finanziato dall’UE, fornirà la prossima generazione di modelli e metodi di riferimento basati sui dati per ricavare in modo appropriato i dati sulle emissioni attuali e future generate dai velivoli. A tal fine, il progetto si avvarrà di dati ADS-B reali per ottimizzare la ricostruzione delle operazioni degli aeromobili e per migliorare le stime sulle emissioni da essi prodotti e sulle persone influenzate dalle attività locali di trasporto aereo.
Obiettivo
NEEDED responds to the second and third bullets of the “expected outcome” of the HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-12 topic, delivering the next generation data-driven reference European models and methods to estimate present and future aircraft emissions (pollutants and noise), achieving TRL 4 at the end of the project. To do so, NEEDED will advance the state of the art by:
• improving the accuracy of the reconstruction of aircraft operations by using real-world ADS-B data,
• advancing emission inventories for current and future aircraft technologies, while delivering more accurate pollution dispersion models,
• extending the applicability of the ECAC Doc 29 noise model towards future aircraft technologies,
• performing more accurate estimation of the number of people affected by local air transport operations by using dynamic population maps.
These activities are complemented by (i) local air quality (LAQ) and experimental noise measurements performed at Rotterdam Airport, (ii) validation of the NEEDED toolchain in a 30-week pilot study involving three airports, and (iii) delivery of a methodology to optimise the flight patterns for minimum detrimental impact on the population in present and future scenarios. The project aims to function as a technology enabler, laying the methodological groundwork for facilitating the entry into service of transformative aircraft technologies while capitalising on the potential of ADS-B data. NEEDED ensures its impact on the next generation of Air Traffic Management (ATM) regulation and policies through the direct involvement of EUROCONTROL.
