Energies 2018, 11, 217 3 of 26 Within this contribution battery operation strategies in an HEA aircraft are discussed on the example of a regional aircraft. This is due to three reasons. First, a large market growth is predicted for regional aircraft with more than 60 PAX—6000 new deliveries until 2033 [18]. Second, this segment has a significant environmental impact with 14% of total aviation CO2 emission [19]. Third, the length of typical flight profiles is limited compared to short-to-medium-haul flights. The longer the flight the more important is the energy density of the energy storage device to fulfill the mission requirements [20]. The combination of power and energy requirements for shorter, regional flights promises to provide more insights in the battery design. The fuel efficient regional aircraft, ATR 72 [21], with 70 PAX is chosen as a reference aircraft. A sophisticated OAD model is developed to investigate the influence of HEA on the design parameters. A promising aircraft architecture is selected and an overview of the state-of-the-art technology is given first. Then, a propulsion operation strategy and the aircraft design model for HEA are defined. The simulation results for different batteries are analyzed and the impact of the battery sizing on the OAD is described. Finally, the environmental impact is clarified in form of sensitivity studies on the CO2 emissions. 2. Propulsion Technology In this section, an overview of the state-of-the-art in hybrid technologies and aircraft propulsion is given. The propulsion operation strategy which is needed for the simulation of an OAD is defined. Figures of merit are introduced to analyze the effects of introducing hybrid electric propulsion in aircraft. 2.1. Propulsion Architecture The hybridization of the propulsion system enables new propulsion architectures that lever additional aerodynamic improvements. An extreme example is the distributed propulsion concept with more than ten propulsors [22] The new arrangement of propulsors can lead to better aerodynamic lift properties of the wing [12]. A variation of this concept is an architecture with two electric-driven wingtip propellers and a conventionally placed gas turbine on each wing (Figure 1). This wingtip propeller architecture described by DLR [15] and NASA [13] promises better lift properties of the aircraft and limited weight as well as cost increases. A larger number of engines can lead to lower oversizing factors of the power rating for each propulsor which is sized due to the one engine inoperative (OEI) case. Figure 1. Schematic wingtip propeller architecture for an ATR-72.
