Plastics in aircraft electricity

Electrical Engineering, 1944
SYNTHETIC organic plastics for electrical insulation represent one of the important contributions of the plastics industry to modern military and commercial aircraft. These materials for the most part are not used as substitutes for more suitable but scarce insulating materials, but have been selected because they possess superior mechanical and ...

Electric Drive for Aircraft

Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1947
The use of large amounts of power in aircraft becomes a power-handling problem; and electric transmission from the turbines mounted in the fuselage, to the propellers on the wings, has the same advantages as in handling very large amounts of power in industry.

More Electric Aircraft

Proceedings Eighth Annual Applied Power Electronics Conference and Exposition,, 2002
The More Electric Aircraft (MEA) concept is based on utilizing electric power to drive aircraft subsystems. With advancing electric power technology it will be feasible to use high power density electrical power components to drive the majority of aircraft subsystems.

All-electric aircraft

Power Engineer, 2003
While there are many technical challenges to overcome before a fully electric aircraft is operational, the benefits of such a system are significant. For the industry to move forward the More Electric Aircraft and its partner concept, the More Electric Engine (MEE) must become reality in the next 10 to 20 years.

Advanced aircraft electrical systems to enable an All-Electric aircraft

2015 International Conference on Electrical Systems for Aircraft, Railway, Ship Propulsion and Road Vehicles (ESARS), 2015
Efficient power generation techniques used in a modern aircraft are described in the form of a High Voltage Variable Frequency Starter Generator. Its advantages in enabling an All-Electric aircraft are discussed. Machine Design aspects of such a system are obtained from detailed analysis of the output equation of a high speed rotating machine.

Electrics for Aircraft

The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1945
A meeting of the Royal Aeronautical Society was held in the lecture hall of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers at Storey's Gate, St. James's Park, Westminster, London, S.W.1, on Thursday, March 8th, 1945, at which a paper on “Electrics for Aircraft,” by Mr. C. G. A. Woodford, A.M.I.E.E., A.F.R.Ae.S., was read and discussed.

Electrically Driven Gyroscopes for Aircraft

Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1944
GYROSCOPIC instruments are given a place of prominence on the instrument panels of military and commercial aircraft. They are among the “most used” of all the instruments and are necessary for blind flight since they serve as stable references in space when natural objects are not visible.

Electric AC WIPS: All Electric Aircraft

2019 Innovations in Power and Advanced Computing Technologies (i-PACT), 2019
This paper deals with design, modeling and validation of More Open Electrical Technologies (MOET) and improvements in the utilization of electric power systems of the aircraft for addressing the concept of All Electric Aircraft (AEA) or More Electric Aircraft (MEA) with respect to Wings Ice Protection Systems (WIPS).

Electric automatic pilots for aircraft

Electrical Engineering, 1944
AUTOMATIC pilots have been in use for many years in both commercial and military aircraft and are well suited to normal airplane control. Their greatest usefulness is in maintaining heading and attitude over long periods of time, with consequent reduction in strain on the human pilot.

Potential for electric aircraft

Nature Sustainability, 2019
Commercial aircraft rely on liquid hydrocarbon fuels. Short-range all-electric aircraft have promise to reduce environmental impacts while remaining cost-competitive; however, they will require significant battery improvements.
