Over the past years, the number of electrical systems in airplanes, and thus their power ratings have been rising. Therefore, the optimization of devices and actuators regarding efficiency and power density has become increasingly important. Besides the large topic of weight reduction at component level, aircraft manufacturers and several research projects have focused on the topology of the entire...
A major intention of the “More Electric Aircraft” concept (MEA) [1], is the use of power electronics instead of mechanical, hydraulical or pneumatical systems, which promises reduced weight, higher efficiency and less maintenance costs. This paper presents the design of rectifier topologies Active Power Factor Correction (APFC) and Autotransformer Rectifier Unit (ATRU) dedicated for a 46 kW electrical...
