Abstract

The constant speed constant frequency (CSCF) alternative current electrical power system of an aircraft is based on a constant speed drive (CSD). This type of electrical power system is used on most modern aircraft due to its high inherent reliability and long life characteristic. This paper presents the design and simulation of an aircraft constant speed drive using the Simscape package of Simulink, a MATLAB program
