United States Project Notice - Lightweight, High-Power Density, Self-Protecting Superconducting Power Cables And Connectors For Electric Aircraft Applications


Project Notice

PNR 61686
Project Name Lightweight, High-power Density, Self-protecting Superconducting Power Cables and Connectors for Electric Aircraft Applications
Project Detail Advanced Conductor Technologies will develop two-pole, high-temperature, superconducting DC power cables and connectors with a power rating of up to 50 MW to enable twin-aisle aircraft with distributed electric propulsion to reduce carbon emissions. The cables and connectors will contain insulation independent of the cryogenic medium used as coolant and allow an operating voltage of 10 kV. Because they have intrinsic fault current limiting capabilities, the cables can protect the power distribution network from over-currents. This intrinsic capability will reduce the complexity of the power distribution network while improving its reliability.
Funded By Self-Funded
Sector Energy & Power
Country United States , Northern America
