AER305   Aerospace Electrical Power Systems   (10 credits)

Description

Aircraft, missiles and space vehicles have complex power requirements both in primary propulsion and in ancillary systems including flight surface control, control and instrumentation systems and passenger comfort. This module examines traditional electrical power systems on aircraft and emerging systems which are replacing pneumatic and cable-based power transfer. Detailed aerospace power systems are covered including aerospace grid systems, as well as protection and aircraft power plants. Aircraft electrification for more-electric and fully-electric aircraft is also covered.
