Analysis of the Impact of a 270 VDC Power Source on the Avionic Power Supplies in the S-3A Aircraft.

Abstract

The objective of this analysis was to determine the total platform impact on an S-3A avionic suite outfitted with 270 V DC switched mode regulators in lieu of standard 115/200V, 400 Hz transformer coupled series regulators and to quantify the resulting impact in terms of changes to aircraft weight, mission performance, fuel usage, reliability, and LCC.
