| Abstract |
To examine the detailed operation of the power distribution network in a future more electric aircraft
that employs electric actuation systems, a Micro-Cap SPICE simulation is developed for one of the
essential buses. Particular attention is paid to model accurately the most important effects that
influence system power quality. Representative system and flight data are used to illustrate the
operation of the simulation and to assess the power quality conditions within the network as the flight
control surfaces are deployed. The results illustrate the importance of correct cable sizing to ensure
stable operation of actuators during transient conditions. |
