Quiet and Efficient – New Propeller Advance Paves Way for Electric Planes
Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a propeller design optimization method that paves the way for quiet and efficient electric aviation.The electrification of aviation is viewed as a crucial component in the creation of a fossil fuel-free future. However, electric aviation is faced with a challenge: the more energy-efficient the aircraft, the louder it becomes. Fortunately, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed an optimized propeller design that…
