GENeUSCONNECT completes the range of electrical systems developed by Safran for air mobility: the ENGINeUS electric motor, GENeUS motor/generator, GENeUSGRID electrical distribution and GENeUSPACK battery.
Potential Discharge (PD) can accelerate the degradation of electrical insulation, potentially causing motor failure, among other safety concerns. As altitude increases, the voltage level needed to cause PD decreases.
Safran will supply the propulsion system’s ENGINeUS 100 electric motor, which delivers a maximum power of more than 150 kW at takeoff. This integrates its own control electronics as well as an air-cooling system.
The HPS elevates system-specific power while reducing energy storage mass. It regulates variable voltage sources such as permanent magnet generators while functioning as a microgrid power manager.
The harnesses will act as the aircraft's main electrical arteries, distributing power from the ten batteries, located on the sides of the fuselage, to the jet propulsion units, embedded into the main wings and canards.
Smaller and more efficient systems will improve size, weight, power and costs to allow for full-spectrum signal processing closer to the edge, or on platforms operating in denied airspace.
The company is looking to add a significant number of technical and manufacturing employees as both government and commercial programs increase into 2024.
GKN will provide support in engineering, electrical wiring interconnections systems design and manufacturing. It will also lead innovation projects and aerostructures design and manufacturing, with a focus on composites.
The hybrid-electric aircraft preserves the range/payload capability of the Grand Caravan, and in fact can fly farther than the Grand Caravan with eight passengers. Maximum range is beyond 1,000 miles.
A new multi-year agreement with BJG will allow KAI to minimise inventory and assure consistent quality supply as program requirements dictate.
North Dakota's KMM has created 70 new aerospace jobs in Kerrville since the company's arrival in December 2021 and plans to create 400 in the coming years. New investment will enlarge its base in Texas.
With the Falcon 10X, Dassault is taking a new approach to ground testing, which will be used to demonstrate the maturity of all systems well before the aircraft even takes to the air.
Bringing together teams that were previously spread across several sites, the new facility will promote cooperation and should ensure the best working conditions for the 430 employees involved.
