  • Hybrid turbo electric aero-propulsion system control
    Patent number: 9586690
    Abstract: A control for a hybrid turbo electric aero-propulsion system prioritizes and optimizes the operating parameters, according to a desired optimization objective, for and across a number of different control optimization subsystems of the hybrid turbo electric aero-propulsion system. The control subsystems may include, for example, a propulsion control optimization subsystem and a power plant control optimization subsystem. The optimizations may be based on a system model, which is developed and updated during the operation of the hybrid turbo electric aero-propulsion system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 20, 2013
    Date of Patent: March 7, 2017
    Assignees: Rolls-Royce Corporation, Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc.
