Beryllium Mysteries: From beryl to Space Wonder！ Beryllium has the unique advantages of light weight and high strength, and it has a wide range of applications in the aerospace field. Aircraft fuselages, engine components, boosters and rocket fuel tanks all require lightweight materials that can withstand great stress. For example, SpaceX used beryllium ceramics on the second stage engine noose of the Falcon 9 rocket and the Raptor engine noose of the Starship to reduce the weight of the spacecraft and improve the performance of the spacecraft. In addition, the use of beryllium alloy greatly reduces the weight of the equipment, while ensuring sufficient strength and heat resistance. Take the Boeing 787 Dreamliner as an example, its fuselage structure uses a lot of beryllium alloy material. This design makes the overall weight of the aircraft 20% lighter than conventional aircraft, resulting in a significant reduction in fuel consumption and improved range and passenger capacity. In the aerospace field, beryllium is also used in spacecraft structural components, reactor components, etc., to help spacecraft maintain good performance in extreme environments.

Hercules to be the biggest electrified aircraft Wright Electric is developing the powertrain for a hybrid version of the C-130 transport aircraft, the Hercules, writes Nick Flaherty. It would use two conventional turbines and two electric propulsors, with the batteries held in the cargo area, making it the largest aircraft to be electrified. The project would use the second-generation, MW-class motor, the WM2500, built with support from the US ARPA-E programme and NASA space agency, which is nearly complete. The stator is wound, the rotor is complete and all of the mechanical components are finished. Final assembly will begin later this year. The WM2500 is a 2.5 MW electric propulsion unit, designed for ducted fan and propeller-based applications. It fits into the existing engine nacelle, says Colin Tschida, CTO of Wright Electric. The 2×2 approach allows all four engines to be used for takeoff, and the two electric motors can be used for quieter, more stealthy flight at altitude. The hybrid design would be able to carry six pallets, each with a volume of 463 L, although the payload will be reduced from 40,000 lb to 25,000 lb. Hybridisation can also save between 27% and 44% of the fuel used. The project needs improvements in the power distribution systems. NASA is working on lightweight, high-conductivity cables and advanced circuit breakers able to handle high voltages of 800 V and 1200 V safely at high altitudes. Wright Electric is also developing a lightweight battery pack with an energy density of 1000 Wh/kg at pack level. “We have experience of building lightweight, thermally managed, electric propulsion systems, and we see a way to apply that knowledge to the design of large, molten battery packs,” said Tschida. Initial packs will be released for lab testing in 2025, with the first rollout to early adopters targeted for 2027.

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐭 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭? Aircraft wings generate lift during flight by utilizing the shape of the wing to alter the air pressure around it, creating an upward force called lift. The wing's curved upper surface and flat lower surface deflect the air downward, increasing its speed and reducing its pressure above the wing, while the slower air flows along the bottom surface, resulting in higher pressure below. This pressure difference creates an upward force, lift, perpendicular to the wing surface, counteracting the weight of the aircraft and keeping it flying.

General Approach to WFD ·     To ensure the continued structural airworthiness of ageing aircraft: - The operators are required to undertake a program of modification or replacement of structure susceptible to MSD/MED, before the LDC (Large Damage Capability) of the structure is compromised - A series of directed inspections of the susceptible structure may be introduced into the operator’s maintenance schedule - This program of special inspections for MSD/MED must end at the Structural Modification Point (SMP), beyond which no aircraft may be operated unless the structure has been modified or replaced. ·     It is extremely difficult to analyze WFD using the standard methods based on the first principles of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). Therefore, more advanced methods have been explored and developed over the past few decades with the support and sponsorship of the FAA and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) ·     Since fatigue cracks at multiple locations may interact, leading to subsequent crack initiation and growth, the analysis becomes more complex than the evaluation of a single isolated fatigue crack undertaken in a conventional damage tolerance assessment The challenge lies with the above methodologies is experimental validation of the proposed tools and criterion in developing a WFD assessment approach. The methodology developed must be verified and validated using experimental data to ensure its successful application to industry with ease.

Aerospace and defense industries continue to influence the definition of mobility. After the launch of SpaceX’s first rocket in 2008, a market dominated by a small number of players began to change. This change continues to drive innovation, especially in the field of electric aircraft and spacecraft. Blueshift is developing technologies that are part of this innovation. In 2020, the company launched its first product commercially: a family thermal protection system (TPS) made up of an aerogel consisting of 85 per cent air and 15 per cent pure polyimide. The material’s porous structure can prevent thermal energy from leaking into composite structures. The thin profile format (starting with 7.5 mils) makes it easier to apply and allows for the addition of functional layers such as graphite, metals and aluminum. https://ow.ly/aA9j50SxWRr #evtolinsights #blueshift #aerospace #electricaviation #advancedairmobility #evtol #airtaxi #usa #aviation
