Design of Batteries for a Hybrid Propulsion System of a Training Aircraft

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
In this article, we propose the parameters of a battery that would be suitable for the conceptual design of a small training aircraft. The mass design of the battery is based on the requirements for real training flights performed by students in pilot ...

Displaced geostationary orbit design using hybrid sail propulsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Because of an increase in the number of geostationary spacecraft and the limits imposed by east–west spacing requirements, the geostationary orbit is becoming congested. To increase its capacity, this paper proposes to create new geostationary slots by

Overview on hybrid propulsion [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Propulsion Physics, 2011
Aside of research works, this historical survey shows propulsion units used by students for small satellites and for gas generation, or those for the Space Ship One, even if LOx/HTPB was studied and tested in large motors for its potential very low cost; however, this combination highlights a series of technical problems without any performance ...

Analysis Leading to the Design of a Hybrid Gas-Electric Multi-Engine Testbed

open access: yesAerospace, 2023
Given the increase in air traffic, the main challenges in aircraft design are in-flight emissions and noise heard by the community. These problems have thus far been solved by incremental improvements in aerodynamics, engine technology and operation.
