“…We changed the design in terms of slots/poles combination, retaining magnet system and winding configuration. Starting from the design presented in [7], with unchanged active materials and kept the same motor typology (i.e. surface permanent magnet brushless machine), which is one of the most referenced for propulsion application.…”

Electrical motors are key components in the electrical transition required for greenhouse gas reduction programs. Future aircraft will certainly employ electrical motors for primary and secondary surface control, for landing gear and for other actuations such as high-lift systems, and they will also need electrical motors for propulsion. The motors pose the hardest challenge due to the high-power density required. Hybrid-Electric propulsion represents one of the most important topics in the aerospace industry and offers an opportunity to pursue the electrification change especially in light aircraft segments. The focus of this paper is the comparison among permanent magnet synchronous motors for Hybrid Light Aircraft propulsion with traditional and additive winding technologies.

“…However, it is difficult to replace the existing aircraft propulsion system with electricity-based propulsion systems because of their low energy density and large and heavy motors. Therefore, various energy sources and motor technologies are being studied to reduce volume and weight [1,2]. An axial flux motor-based propulsion system is one of the effective ways to reduce the weight of the aircraft propulsion system.…”

In line with global environmental regulations, the demand for eco-friendly and highly efficient aircraft propulsion systems is increasing. The combination of axial flux motors and superconductors could be a key technology used to address these needs. In this paper, an axial flux high temperature superconducting (HTS) motor for aircraft propulsion was designed and its characteristics were analyzed. A 2G HTS wire with high magnetic flux characteristic was used for the field winding of the 120 kW axial flux HTS motor, and the rotational speed and rated voltage of the motor were 2000 rpm and 220 V, respectively. The axial flux HTS motor implements a revolving armature type for solid cooling of the HTS field coil. The electromagnetic and thermal features of the motor were analyzed and designed utilizing a 3D finite element method program. The HTS coil was maintained at the target temperature by effectively designing the current lead and cooling system to minimize heat loss. These results can be effectively used in the design of propulsion systems for large commercial aircraft in the future as well as for the design of small aircraft with less than 4 seats.
