Abstract

Efficient power generation techniques used in a modern aircraft are described in the form of a High Voltage Variable Frequency Starter Generator. Its advantages in enabling an All-Electric aircraft are discussed. Machine Design aspects of such a system are obtained from detailed analysis of the output equation of a high speed rotating machine. Case studies are taken by varying various parameters of the equation and results obtained are compared graphically. New and important conclusions derived from the study are summarized.
