Optimised power and data networks for more electric aircraft (ADENEAS)
The More Electric and Connected Aircraft (MECA) concept is one of the most promising enablers for achieving the goals of the EU’s Flightpath 2050 for sustainable aviation. However, MECA implies more electrical systems, exchanging more data – that can be safety-critical – and higher electrical power consumption, leading to higher thermal dissipation. ADENEAS developed enablers […]
