  • Publication number: 20240093647
    Abstract: A method of controlling a fuel supply device of at least one aircraft propulsion system. The method includes a step of determining the state of the fuel flowrate control system following a change of state that has moved it away from an initial state, a step of modifying the pressure of the fuel as a function of the state of the fuel flowrate control system that has been determined, and a step of changing the state of the fuel flowrate control system to return it to or toward the initial state.

  • Publication number: 20240026813
    Abstract: A supply system for an aircraft arranged between two dihydrogen tanks and an engine. The supply system includes a supply module that assures the flow of dihydrogen between the tanks and an outlet pipe and two heaters mounted in series on a main pipe connected to the engine. The supply system also includes a network of pipes and solenoid valves that, in the event of a problem in one of the components of the supply system, enable dihydrogen to be redirected so as to reach the engine. Also an aircraft with such a supply system.

  • Publication number: 20230160631
    Abstract: A system for generating an inert fluid, the system being carried on board an aircraft, the generation system including a plurality of devices configured each, in succession, to execute a separation of components of a primary fluid initially collected in the form of compressed hot air, the system including at least one heat exchanger configured to execute a separation of components, by change of phase of a component of the primary fluid, executing a cooling of the primary fluid using liquid hydrogen, supplied with liquid hydrogen collected from a tank of the aircraft. It is thus possible to generate an inert gas without requiring membrane separation of the nitrogen and the oxygen, and while at the same time making it easier to warm the liquid hydrogen stored and used in the aircraft as a source of energy.

  • Patent number: 11421548
    Abstract: An engine assembly with an electric motor that includes a cooling system of which a heat sink portion is arranged in an exhaust cone downstream of the fan driven by the electric motor, that is designed to effect thermal exchanges with a wall of the exhaust cone. Such an electric rear fan arrangement with boundary layer ingestion enables a cold air flow coming from the fan when the engine assembly is in operation to be used to cool the different components of the engine assembly.

  • Publication number: 20180327104
    Abstract: An aircraft propulsion assembly including a fan. It include a first engine and a second engine which are not coaxial and a mechanical energy transmission device configured to enable the fan to be conjointly rotated by the first engine and the second engine. This allows an aircraft propulsion assembly to be produced of which the fan may be positioned so as to ingest the boundary layer formed at the surface of a member of the aircraft equipped with the propulsion assembly, while allowing operating modes in the case of certain failures, and certification for commercial use of an aircraft equipped with such a propulsion assembly, to which the invention also relates.

  • Patent number: 8708275
    Abstract: In order to generate an efficient aerodynamic braking force, whatever the speed of a vehicle such as an airplane flying in the air, the method includes a step for the production of energy by the vehicle, a step of storage of the energy produced and a step of utilization of such energy to drive a propeller which generates a force opposing the forward motion of the vehicle. Energy is produced by using the displacement of the vehicle with respect to air using a propeller driving a generator, or using the displacement with respect to the ground, using wheels driving a generator, or using generators driven by motors of the vehicle. The energy can be stored in the pneumatic, electric or kinetic form and the generation and driving means are selected according to the technology used for the storage means.

  • Patent number: 8336823
    Abstract: An aircraft fuselage including a front part including a cockpit, a central part, and a rear part. The central part of the fuselage includes a first zone located at the front part and that increases in width to a maximum width towards the rear of the aircraft, a second zone that decreases in width, and a third zone that has an essentially constant width and is located behind the second zone, width begin measured along the pitch axis.

  • Patent number: 8011613
    Abstract: An aircraft includes a fuselage and at least one engine provided with at least one propeller and mounted at a rear part of the fuselage, on the back thereof, with the at least one engine having an axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the fuselage, where the at least one engine is mounted on the rear part of the fuselage so that the propeller lies forward of the tails, and provided at the rear part of the fuselage, symmetrically with respect to the fuselage, are removable noise masking surfaces configured to occupy either a deployed position in which the removable noise masking surfaces project laterally with respect to the rear part of the fuselage and are positioned plumb with the propeller, or a retracted position in which the removable noise masking surfaces are incorporated into the rear part of the fuselage.
