Title:
Thermal Management of Electromechanical Machines for Aerospace Systems
Report Date:

Abstract:
In making the transition towards electric aircraft, electro-mechanical actuators (EMAs) have been used to move the flight control surfaces. This has numerous advantages such as (a) reduction in weight and volume of power transmission; (b) reliability and safety improvement; (c) less maintenance and lower operating costs; (d) better dynamic characteristics; and (e) higher energy efficiency. An EMA contains four main parts: electric motor, electronic box, gearbox, and drive train.
