Battery Sizing of Small All-Electric Aircraft Using an Electro-Thermal Cell Model

Research output: Chapter in Book/Conference proceedings/Edited volumeConference contributionScientificpeer-review

Abstract

Electric aircraft represent a promising lowemission alternative to conventional fuel-powered aviation. This study proposes a battery sizing method for small all-electric aircraft using an electro-thermal battery cell model, considering different flight segments based on a reference commercial aircraft. The experiment is conducted to verify the proposed electro-thermal battery cell model. It considers varying battery efficiency throughout the flight mission, highlighting the importance of battery efficieny in the design process.
