The high thermal issues associated with aircraft electric systems are significant concerns that need to be addressed in the development and operation of electric aircraft. Electric systems, especially high-powered electric motors & power electronics, generate significant amounts of heat during operation. This heat must be managed effectively to prevent components from overheating and potentially failing. Current battery technology limits the range and endurance of electric aircraft. Overcoming these limitations to provide long-haul capabilities is a significant challenge. The energy density of batteries is lower than that of aviation fuels, making it challenging to store sufficient energy for long-haul flights without significant weight penalties.
COVID-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic had significant impacts on the aviation industry including the field of aircraft electrification. Several electric aircraft projects faced delays due to reduced funding and resource allocation. Research & development efforts were slowed down as companies redirected their focus toward addressing immediate financial concerns and maintaining the existing fleet.
Aircraft Electrification Market Trends
Electric propulsion systems including electric motors and batteries are being increasingly used in various types of aircraft, from small electric drones to urban air mobility vehicles. These systems are more energy-efficient and produce fewer emissions compared to traditional combustion engines. Hybrid-electric aircraft combine traditional gas turbine engines with electric propulsion systems. This approach reduces fuel consumption and emissions while maintaining the range & performance required for larger commercial aircraft. All-electric aircraft, such as small electric trainers and regional aircraft, use electric propulsion for all phases of flight. These aircraft are well-suited for short-haul routes and urban air mobility applications.
