Vice Director for Design Data Management Design Department Irkut Corporation
Irkut Corporation as a leader in the Russian aviation industry uses Simcenter Amesim which helps reduce MC-21 aircraft system development period and number of physical test cycles.
We are striving to build a competitive aircraft while Siemens Digital Industries Software offers tools to address most of our challenges.
Yuri Logvin,
Vice Director for Design Data Management Design Department
Irkut Corporation
In 2010, Irkut Corporation deployed Simcenter Amesim software from Siemens Digital Industries Software for MC-21 aircraft systems simulation. The concept design stage was near completion upon introducing Simcenter Amesim, but there were neither test benches nor a pro-totype.

Digital twins of aircraft systems and how to create them
To enable the VIA approach,
Simcenter Amesim helps you rapidly
build digital replicas
of aircraft systems.
Environmental control systems
Ensure the comfort of passengers and crew by optimizing energy management,
air conditioning and ventilation. Account for
temperature, humidity, pressure
and change of pressure rate in dynamic
conditions. Design systems with higher efficiency, improved safety and lower weight.
Electrical systems
Create a more electric aircraft by optimizing
the electrical net- work and accounting for thermal integration. Analyze the impact of power network reconfiguration on
generators and loads in steady-state and transient phases.
Aircraft engine and equipment
Balance the performance of conventional and innovative aircraft engine architectures: simulate their complete
thermodynamic cycles in various
operational conditions, accounting for environ- mental conditions and degradation of compressors and turbines, and integrate their equipment and consumers.
Flight controls
Analyze the behavior
of servo-hydraulic, electromechanical and electro-hydrostatic actuators
for primary flight controls, cable actuation for light aircraft,
and rotary actuators
for high-lift devices. Evaluate their performance by considering thermal
aspects and the integration with hydraulic or electri- cal systems.
Fuel systems
Improve efficiency, reduce weight and energy consumption of the fuel systems
while satisfying certification requirements.
Optimize fuel pressurization, fueling, refueling and defueling of reservoirs
with complex shapes while accounting for aircraft attitude, acceleration, wing bending or twisting.
Flight dynamics
Optimize aircraft stability and improve early
stage autopilot controller design. Account for mass, inertia and center of gravity position
to assess handling
qualities during the flight mission.
Landing systems
Simulate mechanical, fluid, electrical and thermal aspects. Analyze system sizing options under various operating condi-
tions. Meet shock absorber requirements, optimize the kinematics for extraction and retraction,
as well as improve braking and steering systems.
Hydraulic systems
Simulate hydraulic systems’ behavior for different sizing scenar- ios and flight missions. Integrate your hydraulic systems
with flight controls, electrical or
landing systems, to assess overall aircraft performance. Estimate the
system’s degraded perfor- mance to meet certification requirements.
