Electrical and
Electronic Technologies in More-Electric Aircraft: A Review
Abstract:
This paper presents a review of the electrical and electronic
technologies investigated in more-electric aircraft (MEA). In order to change
the current situation of low power efficiency, serious pollution, and high
operating cost in conventional aircraft, the concept of MEA is proposed. By
converting some hydraulic, mechanical, and pneumatic power sources into
electrical ones, the overall power efficiency is greatly increased, and more
flexible power regulation is achieved. The main components in an MEA power
system are electrical machines and power electronics devices. The design and
control methods for electrical machines and various topologies and control
strategies for power electronic converters have been widely researched.
Besides, several studies are carried out regarding energy management strategies
that intend to optimize the operation of MEA power distribution systems.
Furthermore, it is necessary to investigate the system stability and
reliability issues in an MEA, since they are directly related to the safety of
passengers. In terms of machine technologies, power electronics techniques,
energy management strategies, and the system stability and reliability, a
review is carried out for the contributions in the literature to MEA.
