 Abstract

Starter/generator units based on PM machines are generally not considered due to their inherent safety risks. This technology can, however, prove advantageous for aerospace applications where mass, volume, efficiency and low maintenance costs play a significant role. A safety analysis is performed in order to identify the safety and mitigation measures required to realise such a system which conforms to aerospace requirements. These measures define the design-space and boundary conditions within which a design may be realised. It is found that not all the measures are unique to PM based SGUs and that their degree of influence on the mass and volume is highly dependent on the starting and generating specifications.
