ELECTRIC, HYBRID & HYDROGEN AIRCRAFT

Through hard-earned experience on real-world electric vehicle programs, AeroTEC has developed key capabilities to support emerging technologies in aircraft development. We have the tools needed to quickly and efficiently integrate design innovations into new or existing airframes. We have the experience to know how and when to bring these tools into the program for maximum effect and efficiency. Our teams are right-sized to enable rapid development – from conceptual design to a full-up aircraft certification program – and our engineers have the discrete system knowledge and cross-system integration expertise to help you bring your product design forward.

ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT DESIGN & INTEGRATION

EPU INTEGRATION
AeroTEC has designed and developed the hardware and systems needed to integrate a complete electric power unit into a flying aircraft. From motor mounts to the complex interactions of an integrated cooling system. AeroTEC has worked the problem successfully from beginning to end.
- Systems Integration
- Loads and Structures Development
- Gear Box Design
COOLING SYSTEM DESIGN & INTEGRATION
High-power systems management really comes down to component thermal management. AeroTEC has significant experience working the challenging integration problems that inevitably result from packing high-power components in confined spaces. We know how deal with difficult thermal management problems and tight timelines.
- Motor Thermal Management
- Electronics Thermal Management
- Accessory Cooling
FLIGHT TEST BEST PRACTICES
HIGH-POWERED ELECTRONICS & BATTERIES
Testing with high-powered storage devices requires special considerations for the testing team due to inherent risks with rapid charging and discharging of battery packs. Our test teams are experienced and trained to handle these systems and the unique constraints they place on test programs.
- Battery State of Charge (SOC) Balance & Temperature Management
- Battery Performance & Degradation
- Understand of Limitations & Hazards
- High Voltage Electronics Handling
- Battery Charging Safety Protocols
