HyPoTraDe aims to design, assemble, and ground-test a set of 500-kW modular fuel cell-battery hybrid-electric DEP powertrain architectures, including cryo-enabled thermal management with ΘΕα > 0.12, emulating operation in a relevant environment (FL > 150). The ground testing campaign will lead to characterization of the optimal system architecture, validation of failure mode mitigations for the groundbreaking powertrain, demonstration of complex operating requirements (e.g., operation at high coolant temperatures, start-up and shut-down characteristics, in-flight restart and battery charging, etc.), and assessment of the fail-safe capabilities of the modular powertrain. Further, the system will be complemented with a digital twin, validated using the results from the ground test campaign. HyPoTrade covers the disruptive maturation and adaptation of fuel cell systems for aeronautical powertrain applications via ground testing of different system architectures with cryo-enabled heat management and representative electric loads, following the demonstrator strategy outlined in the CAJU SRIA. The main impact of HyPoTraDe is the fast-track characterization of fuel cell powertrain architectures in relevant operating conditions, providing the members of the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking with a comprehensive understanding on the operational characteristics of modular fuel cell-battery hybrid-electric DEP powertrain architectures. This will enable the focus of the efforts of the 2nd phase of the Clean Aviation Programme in the correct direction, helping to fulfil the ambitious goals of the Clean Aviation Programme for EIS of HER, SR and SMR hydrogen-powered aircraft in 2035. ver más
