Many companies in the advanced air mobility sector plan to power their aircraft with batteries. These future aircraft are estimated to have an operational range of 100 miles, enabling rapid transit through cities. Yet there is great potential for AAM to travel beyond and between cities, and to accomplish this as a viable mode of transportation, operational range will likely need to be increased, and that requires innovating the batteries that power AAM.
In this episode of Talking Aerospace Today, Todd Tuthill, Vice President of Aerospace and Defense for Siemens Digital Industries, is joined by Puneet Sinha, Global Head of the Battery Industry for Siemens Digital Industries Software. Together, they highlight the need for longer ranges for AAM and how companies can improve battery technology to enable that.
In this episode, you will learn:
Why AAM companies should explore increasing their aircraft’s flight range
The primary engineering concerns in battery design
How batteries can be improved to increase AAM range
Safety considerations and risks for AAM batteries
