Innovative Onboard Power and Cooling Solutions

SDII continually seeks, identifies, and examines available market sources to refine its own technologies for innovative solutions for large platform aircraft systems growing power and cooling needs. SDII Engineering is in the process of developingSupplemental Power System, spirally configured, which adapts a single turbo shaft engine/generator(s) combined with load compressor(s) driving single/dual large or multiple smaller synchronized generators and load compressors, to produce large amounts ofelectrical power, 1mGW or larger, and compressed air, 800lbm/min @50psia, for cooling and aircraft engine starting. Preliminary design options include: 1) Analysis and selection of optimum generator(s) matched to available shaft power, 2) Methodologiesfor mating generator(s) and load compressor(s) to selected power plant, 3) System integration and packaging i.e. enclosures, ducting, control system, fire detection and suppression, and provision for delivering electrical power and pressurized air toMission package and, 4) Weight reduction without compromising redundancy by eliminating or modifying system components. Designs will conform to established best value system configuration and will apply to military or civilian large platform aircraftrequiring additional power and air to supplement or replace the platform systems without compromising weight, volume and acoustic considerations.
