Multi-Fuel Capable Hybrid Electric Propulsion: Area 6
Hybrid-Electric Tool/Method: Tool and method for hybrid-electric propulsion is critical for realization of optimized hybrid-electric propulsion for Group 3+ unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The tool/method will be used to guide the development of mission-specific UAS with optimally sized components. This tool/method should include engine cycle, battery/capacitor, electric motor, power management, and thermal management modules.
