Funded Activity Summary

Energy Source Durability for Electric Vertical TakeOff and Landing Aircraft. This project aims to address energy source durability for electric Vertical Take Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft by optimising a fuel cell/battery/ultracapacitor triple hybrid energy system. The project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of energy source durability using interdisciplinary approaches that combine energy source degradation models, hardware-in-the-loop simulations, aero-propulsive flight mechanics models, and accelerated degradation testing. This should provide significant benefits, allowing to fast-track the improved longevity needed for cost-competitive long-range rapid response air ambulance eVTOL operations.
