Electric/Hybrid-Electric Aircraft Propulsion Systems

Proceedings of the IEEE, 2021
The idea of electric propulsion for transportation is not new; indeed, the first cars, nearly 200 years ago, were electric. However, our dependence on fossil fuels over the last 100 years is now being questioned, and as a global society, we are moving toward more-electric transportation solutions.

Electric propulsion

2001
Abstract An electric propulsion system is the heart of EVs. Its functional block diagram is shown in Fig. 5.1. Its job is to interface batteries with vehicle wheels, transferring energy in either direction as required, with high efficiency, under control of the driver at all times.

Electric propulsion of ships

Journal of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1921
This paper deals with the electric propulsion of practically all classes of vessels. The several types of electric drive are treated, in general, with special emphasis on Diesel-electric drive, as it is believed that this type of electric drive will be of most general interest, particularly to the inland section of our country, since it is especially ...

Electric propulsion: comparisons between different concepts

Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, 2011
Electric propulsion (EP) is nowadays a mature technology used on board space vehicles. In comparison with chemical thrusters, electric thrusters can advantageously accelerate propellant at a high exhaust speed. The corresponding propellant mass saving makes essential the utilization of electric thrusters for low thrust and long duration missions ...

Survey of Electric Propulsion Capability

Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets, 1974
A nearly two decades of research and development, and several recent and ongoing successful tests in space, electric propulsion systems are emerging which are capable of fulfilling the secondary propulsion requirements of initial station acquisition, stationkeeping, attitude control, and modest repositioning, as well as providing primary propulsion for

Electric Propulsion Systems

2016
Taking into account traffic flow, the greenhouse effect, pollutant emission, and noise emission, it seems that electric mobility is the best alternative for transport in urban areas. Nevertheless, as shown in Chap. 1, these unique characteristics are prejudiced by severe disadvantages regarding the sources of electric energy (Fig.
