T/AOPA 0060-2024 Electric propulsion system for electric aircraft general requirements

Scope

Scope: This document specifies the operating mode and voltage level of electric propulsion systems for electric aircraft, general requirements, design and construction, systems and equipment, and verification test requirements. This document applies to electric propulsion systems that provide power for electric aircraft under normal and emergency conditions; Main technical content: Electric aircraft use electric energy as all or part of the energy source for the propulsion system, playing a role as the main force and new force of green aviation and addressing global environmental challenges, opening up a new round of innovation and reform in the aviation field. At present, various research institutions and enterprises at home and abroad are paying close attention to this. China has accumulated technical advantages in new energy equipment fields such as electric vehicles and rail transit, providing an opportunity for the green development of the aviation manufacturing industry and is expected to drive the overall development of many related industries in China. The electric propulsion system includes one or more motors and the components necessary for their proper control and operation, such as related controllers, circuit breakers, sensors, etc. In view of the design characteristics of the electric propulsion system for electric aircraft, there are significant differences between its power system and the traditional fuel-powered devices of aircraft. Through research and statistics on domestic electric aircraft main engine manufacturers and electric propulsion system manufacturers, some manufacturers can provide complete electric propulsion systems, while others only focus on individual motors or motor controllers. This document aims to establish the minimum performance requirements for electric propulsion systems for electric aircraft, standardize the research, development, production, and management of electric propulsion systems, covering general requirements, des
