This project aims to address energy source durability for electric Vertical Take Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft by optimising a fuel cell/battery/ultracapacitor triple hybrid energy system. The project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of energy source durability using interdisciplinary approaches that combine energy source degradation models, hardware-in-the-loop simulations, aero-propulsive flight mechanics models, and accelerated degradation testing. This should provide significant benefits, allowing to fast-track the improved longevity needed for cost-competitive long-range rapid response air ambulance eVTOL operations.

该项目旨在通过优化燃料电池/电池/超级电容器三重混合能源系统来解决电垂直起飞和降落（EVTOL）飞机的能源耐用性。该项目预计将使用跨学科耐久性领域中的新知识，通过跨学科方法结合了能源降解模型，硬件中的模拟模拟，空气推广飞行力学模型以及加速的降级测试。这应该提供重大的好处，从而可以快速追踪成本竞争力的快速响应空气救护车EVTOL运营所需的寿命。
