Electric Aircraft Test Approaches
Electric flight raises unique and unprecedented testing challenges. A major limitation for electric-powered planes is the weight and capacity of the battery. Electric planes require lighter weight batteries with higher energy density to make electric flight feasible. Modern propulsion system architectures and electrical power systems also require testing at increasing power levels.
Therefore, it is important for engineers to use the most effective technologies and test approaches to ensure product performance, safety, reliability and reduced time to market. This session will review key technology considerations for battery test systems, battery emulation, loading and sourcing test solutions.
Whether you’re testing a traditional, hybrid, or full-electric aircraft system, modern test solutions are required for faster, scalable and repeatable testing. Learn how you can recreate an aircraft environment using the right test solutions that will substantially reduce test time, risk, energy consumption and operating costs. We’ll share best practices and techniques for testing electric batteries, propulsion systems, power distribution units (PDUs) and power converters/inverters.
In this webinar, learn about:
- Market Trends, Challenges, and Opportunities
- Key Technology Considerations and Testing Requirements
