Superconducting rotor with self-contained thermal management system
Superconducting (SC) electric machines can reach incredibly high specific power and are especially desirable for weight-sensitive applications including aircraft electric propulsion. However, thermal management of the cryogenic environment has posed challenges to building practical aerospace SC …

Fundamental Configuration Optimisation of Aircraft with Electric Propulsion
Electric propulsion has the potential to induce a paradigm shift in how aircraft perform, provided the same shift occurs in their design. Improvements to conventional aircraft have reduced CO2 emissions per passenger kilometre by, on average, 3.8% per year since 1960, but these incremental …

The effects of aero-propulsive coupling on aircraft with distributed propulsion systems
… coupling effects which are present for aircraft equipped with distributed electric propulsion (DEP) systems consisting of over-wing trailing-edge mounted (OWTE) arrays of ducted fans, and to identify the influence of those effects on aircraft dynamics. The first experiment consisted of …
