“…This topic is addressed in the specialized literature using Matlab/Simulink [17,18], or with the simulation made in other programming languages (Saber [19,20], ANSYS Simplorer [21, 22,], Amesim [23], SimVimCockpit [24]), but the generator is driven from a constant torque, never using the CSD, as it is in reality, and with the help of which the automatic control of the rotational speed, respectively of the frequency is also done.…”

Although recent developments in aircraft electrical technology have had a significant impact on aircraft electrical power systems (EPS), thus reminding the development and production of more electric aircraft (MEA), but also important steps in the development of all-electric aircraft (AEA), still the EPS of the latest aircraft produced by the two big players in the market, the Neo series from Airbus and the NG or Max from Boeing respectively, is completely traditional – a constant speed constant frequency (CSCF) system. Thus, for an alternating current one, it is composed of the power source – the integrated drive generator (IDG), the command and control system – the generator control unit (GCU), the transmission and distribution system, the protection system – the CBs (circuit breaker) and electrical loads. This paper presents the design and simulation of an aircraft EPS using Simulink’s Simscape package, a MATLAB program, and for the first time in the specialized literature, a model of the constant speed drive (CSD) generated with the same program is used to drive the synchronous generator (SG) in the IDG.

“…Early AC generators were using slip rings. Later, three-stage wound field synchronous generators were used, and they are still in use today in many aircraft models due to their robustness, simplicity, and high efficiency [79][80][81]. These generators enable not to use of carbon brushes; so-called contactless construction.…”

On-board electrical systems are the key components of each modern aircraft. They enable its safer, more comfortable, and environmentally friendlier operation. The strict regulations to reduce pollution and noise are produced by aircraft eventuated in projects like Clean Sky or ICAO Global Coalition for Sustainable Aviation. One solution to environmentally friendlier operation is the full electric propulsion of the aircraft, which enables the reduction of both noise and pollution. Such a concept requires a total change of all on-board power systems and enables the profound change in aircraft design. This paper presents the evolution of aircraft power systems into the so-called more electric aircraft (MEA) and discusses the state-of-the-art electrical systems. Furthermore, the concept of all-electric aircraft (AEA) is presented here.

A fault diagnosis method for the rotating rectifier of a brushless three-phase synchronous aerospace generator is proposed in this article. The proposed diagnostic system includes three steps: data acquisition, feature extraction and fault diagnosis. Based on a dynamic Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), this method processes the output voltages of aerospace generator continuously and monitors the continuous change trend of the main frequency in the spectrum before and after the fault. The trend can be used to perform fault diagnosis task. The fault features of the rotating rectifier proposed in this paper can quickly and effectively distinguish single and double faulty diodes. In order to verify the proposed diagnosis system, simulation and practical experiments are carried out in this paper, and good results can be achieved.
