HYBRID POWER SYSTEM FOR PISTON ENGINE AIRCRAFTS

摘要

The invention relates to an electric power system that performs the functions of auxiliary engine, internal combustion engine starter an generating system for the electrical power supply of an aircraft. The main application of the invention is offer a propulsion alternative to an aircraft when the combustion engine is not operational. The invention provides the aircraft with the necessary propulsion so that the pilot is able to reach an alternative aerodrome or an obstacle-free area in order to land, consequently resulting in an increase on the safety of the airplane. Furthermore, the invention provides other functions which are: auxiliary engine system; system for generating and storing electrical energy; system for starting the main engine.
