POWER MANAGEMENT SUPPLY OPTIMIZATION FOR HYBRID-ELECTRIC REGIONAL AIRCRAFT
G. Palaia¹, K. Abu Salem¹; ¹Polytechnic of Turin, Italy
This study deals with the optimisation of the power supply of a parallel hybrid electric powertrain. Specifically, the mission profile is discretised to determine the optimal power split to minimise fuel consumption. This approach serves as a precursor to advanced control techniques in hybrid-electric aircraft.
