A description of a full electric propulsion system demonstrator with an energy source based on a battery pack for an ultralight manned Sigma-4 aircraft is presented. The main characteristics and functionality of the main units and devices of the electric propulsion system and its control system are presented.
This paper provides a description of a hybrid electric propulsion system demonstrator developed at CIAM. The key element of the demonstrator is an electric motor based on the principles of high-temperature superconductivity. Bench tests of several demonstrator units and devices have been successfully carried out. After their completion, bench tests of a full demonstrator were carried out in a high-altitude-climatic chamber.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
