Synopsis

Fundamentals of Electric Aircraft, Second Edition was developed to explain what the electric aircraft stands for by offering an objective view of what can be expected from the giant strides in innovative architectures and technologies enabling aircraft electrification. This edition features new illustrations and photographs throughout.

Through tangible case studies, a deep insight is provided into this paradigm shift cutting across various aircraft segments - from General Aviation to Large Aircraft.

Addressing design constraints and timelines foreseen to reach acceptable performance and maturity levels, Fundamentals of Electric Aircraft, Second Edition puts forward a general view of the progress made to date and what to expect in the years to come.

Drawing from the expertise of four industry veterans, Pascal Thalin (editor/contributor), Ravi Rajamani, Jean-Charles Maré, and Sven Taubert (contributors), it addresses futuristic approaches but does not depart too far from the operational down-to-earth realities of everyday business.

Fundamentals of Electric Aircraft, Second Edition also offers analyses on how performance enhancements and fuel burn savings may bring more value for money as long as new electric technologies deliver on their promises.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Pascal Thalin is Chair of the Electric Aircraft Steering Group of SAE International. His major focus is on delivering innovative and optimized solutions for electric aircraft and coordinating related standardization activities. In various leadership positions within Airbus, Safran, and Thales for almost two decades, he has gained longstanding experience in research and development and program management of power, propulsion, and actuation systems for a wide range of aircraft. Prior to that, he worked at Electricité de France and General Electric on power systems for industrial and medical applications. He holds a master's degree in engineering from INP-ENSEEIHT, Toulouse, France, and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse, France. He is a regular invited speaker and moderator of panel sessions at conferences on electric Aircraft. He also chairs such conferences and takes part in their organization committees.

Dr. Ravi Rajamani is an independent consultant with many years of experience in aerospace propulsion and energy, specifically in data analytics and model-based methods for controls, diagnostics, and prognostics. He has written three books, including Electric Flight Technology: The Unfolding of a New Future. Prior to his current job, Ravi worked at Meggitt, United Technologies, and General Electric. He is active within various SAE technical committees and with the PHM Society, serving on its board of directors. Ravi is a Visiting Professor at Cranfield University and Editor-in-Chief of SAE's Journal of Aerospace. He has been elected a fellow of SAE and of IMechE.

Jean-Charles Maré is a Professor at Institut National des Sciences Appliquées (INSA), Toulouse, France. He holds a degree in mechanical engineering from INSA and a doctorate from Université de Lyon, France. He teaches mechanic and fluid power systems with special focus on architecture design and system-level modeling and simulation. In charge of research activity at Institut Clément Ader in Toulouse, France, he has created a team working on embedded actuation systems and components. His expertise includes preliminary design, virtual prototyping, and testing of safety-critical actuators for aerospace applications. Since the early 2000s, he has been a regular contributor to numerous research projects dealing with more electric actuation for aerospace. He is a member of the SAE A-6 technical committee, the author of Aerospace Actuators, a three-volume book series, and chair of the International Conference on Recent Advances in Aerospace Actuation Systems and Components (R3ASC) that he initiated in 2001.
