Běžné automobilové elektromotory dosahují poměru výkonu k hmotnosti 2 až 4 kW/kg. Vědci z institutu Fraunhofer IISB však tuto hodnotu výrazně překonali. Nový letecký synchronní motor s permanentními magnety dosahuje až 8 kW/kg.

Při váze 94 kilogramů dokáže vyvinout výkon 750 kilowattů (tedy zhruba 1000 koní) a má krouticí moment 350 Nm, což přibližně odpovídá síle menšího turbovrtulového motoru. Agregát je dlouhý pouhých 60 centimetrů a jeho průměr činí 25 centimetrů.

Cargo, I suspect.
And no doubt the Americans will continue deportation flights.
And military use.
But civilian ordinary flight looks frivolous already.

Except

There's an #electric #plane flying* into a local #airfield. And a few more around.
Amusing to walk past the row of car electric chargers and see over the fence the rather bigger #aeroplane #charger. There's a coffee shop, and it is mildly entertaining.

* From not very far away, yet ;(

Denmark just flew 5 people over 300 km in an all-electric plane—in under an hour. ⚡✈️ It recharged in 30 mins and emitted zero CO₂. It’s not just a test—it’s step one in Denmark’s bold plan: 100% fossil-free domestic flights by 2030. The skies are changing. #ElectricFlight #Denmark #EVaviation #EVTOL

Rolls-Royce completed the first fuel burn of its gas turbine engine designed for hybrid-electric aircraft. It features combustion technology for lower emissions. It will be integrated into a lightweight turbogenerator system: https://www.rolls-royce.com/media/press-releases/2023/27-09-2023-new-rr-engine-for-hybrid-electric-flight-completes-successful-first-fuel-burn.aspx?trk=public_post_comment-text. ✈️

Interoperability of charging #infrastructure will be an important factor to facilitate adoption, optimize airport resource utilization & promote fair market access.
SAE Int'l standards might mitigate some of these issues: https://www.aerosociety.com/news/revolution-in-the-air/. 🔋🚁🛩️✈️ #airports #aviation #electricflight #engineering

From the March/April issue of #Vertiflite, an in-depth summary of some of the important news from the @VTOLsociety's 10th Annual eVTOL Symposium in January and a perspective on our first decade of supporting the #eVTOLrevolution: "#eVTOL at the 10-Year Mark."

The latest @VTOLsociety #Vertiflite Commentary: "Lilienthal Was Wrong" with the quote, “Designing a flying machine is nothing; Building it is something; Testing it is everything.” There's so much more than just getting an aircraft off the ground — esp. #eVTOL!

Read the new US Government Accountability Office report Transforming #Aviation: Congress Should Clarify Certain Tax Exemptions for Advanced Air #Mobility: https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-23-105188. It was a pleasure to provide my perspectives on the matter to the GAO analysts as part of the Airport Consultants Council (ACC) response to the study's industry outreach effort. 🚁🛩️🔋 #advancedairmobility #airports #electricflight #evtols #futureready #infrastructure #transportation #verticalflight #vertiports
