Hybrid-electric power unit for an ultralight aircraft
Abstract High power-weight ratio, reliability and efficiency are the main design goals for the propulsion system of ultralight aircraft (mass up to 650 kg). For power outputs beyond 40 kW, 4-stroke multi-cylinder SI engines are the most widespread solution, while pure electric powertrains do not appear at the moment as a practical ...
