Watch webinar recording 

In today’s fast-changing aviation industry, multiphysics system simulation is essential for designing modern aircraft, especially those with electrified propulsion systems. Simulating various physical phenomena like thermal, electrical, and mechanical is crucial in predicting performance, optimizing energy efficiency, and ensuring the safe operation of intricate electric aircraft designs. By using advanced simulation software, engineers can effectively investigate a wide range of electric aircraft designs, reducing the reliance on expensive prototypes and speeding up the development timeline.

This 45-minute webinar will introduce a physics-driven approach to simulate electric airplane systems — specifically looking at full-electric setups with several power supplies — which allows for the dimensioning and preliminary design of ePowertrain, thermal, and hydrogen subsystems to enhance performance across different mission profiles and environmental conditions. The session will explore advanced simulation software’s ability to analyze how various parameters affect system behavior.
