Aerospace Power Technology
Abstract
This project develops and demonstrates electrical power, thermal management, and distribution for aerospace applications. This technology enhances reliability and survivability, and reduces vulnerability, weight, and life cycle costs for manned and remotely piloted aircraft. The electrical power system components developed are projected to provide a two- to five-fold improvement in aircraft reliability and maintainability, and a reduction in power system weight. This project is integrated into energy optimized aircraft efforts and power and thermal programs. This project also develops and demonstrates electrical power and thermal management technologies to enable solid state high power density sources for directed energy weapons.
