Energy Storage Controller Design to Mitigate Impact of Pulsed Power Loads

The transition to more-electric military and commercial aircraft designs continues to increase the complexity of designing the electric power system. In particular, the energy storage controller faces challenges in meeting the highly dynamic power demands of advanced power electronic based loads. This paper will focus on the energy storage controller design to mitigate the impact of pulsed power loads on the electrical system and the engine. Simulation results are then implemented using both electrical and mechanical components to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.
