Can electric starter-generator system be used in aircraft applications?
Starting aircraft engines with an electric motor instead of using pneumatic power from the auxiliary power unit is one of the major characteristics of future aircraft. This paper presents the development of a novel electric starter-generator system for aircraft applications.
Why do we need a starter/generator system?
The conventional electric power production system is not sufficient enough and needs to be improved. The relatively new starter/generator (SG) system comes forward with a better solution. It provides not only efficient generator operation but also starter operation is secured.
Why do new-generation aircraft use starter/generators?
For eliminating this dependency and compensating for the required electric power demand, the new-generation aircraft use Starter/generators (SG). The SG is basically an electric machine and is capable both of main engine starting and electric power generating. For this reason, the SG has a key role in MEA concept.
Why do aircraft use electric power?
As mentioned above, the conventional aircrafts use pneumatic and hydraulic power for subsystems such as main engine starters, actuators, and air conditioning system. Using electric power for this system comes with a big consequence: the increased demand for electric power on aircraft.
Can aviation use electric power as a main energy source?
The electrification of transportation systems is very popular nowadays and essentially aims to use electric power as the main energy source. But when it comes to aviation, this goal is not very feasible due to regulations and technological constraints.
