This book provides a modular approach to the design of modern electric and hybrid electric aircraft. This ground-breaking work covers the dynamics of electric actuators, electric propulsion, batteries, fuel cells, and the other systems required for electric aircraft and control of electric drives.
Electric Aircraft Dynamics: A Systems Engineering Approach surveys engineering sciences that underpin the dynamics, control, monitoring, and design of electric propulsion systems for aircraft. It is structured to appeal to readers with a science and engineering background and is modular in format. The closely linked chapters present descriptive material and relevant mathematical modeling techniques. Taken as a whole, this ground-breaking text equips professional and student readers with a solid foundation for advanced work in this emerging field.

Key Features:



Provides the first systems-based overview of this emerging aerospace technology



Surveys low-weight battery technologies and their use in electric aircraft propulsion



Explores the design and use of plasma actuation for boundary layer and flow control



Considers the integrated design of electric motor-driven propellers



Includes PowerPoint slides for instructors using the text for classes
