A Study on Aircraft Anti-Icing Systems
Abstract: Aircraft anti-icing system is one of the key components without which aircraft icing related problems cannot be solved. Considering the long history of aircraft building technologies the involvement of anti-icing system has a remarkable influence over it. Basically there exist two types of aircraft anti-icing systems namely, the first one is electro-thermal anti-icing system the second one is bleed air anti-icing system. For propellers electro-thermal anti-icing system is used and …

Fuel Cell-Powered SRM Driven Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Using Multi-Port Topology
Abstract: AbstractIn recent years, plug-in hybrid electrical vehicles (PHEVs) have received much attention owing to high demand of fuel efficiency and environment protection against the exhaust gas emission. PHEVs combines the merits of the electrical vehicles and hybrid electrical vehicles. In current hybrid vehicles there are three main electrical energy components including generator, battery bank and driving motor, respectively. For plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, an AC-DC converter is also needed to …
