Lemont, Illinois-based Argonne National Laboratory said in a news release on its website that it is developing Aeronomie, a dynamic aircraft simulation tool to demonstrate the future performance of a variety of aircraft such as electric and hybrid vehicles, urban air mobility and unmanned aerial vehicles. Aeronomie is capable of simulating entire flights by optimizing systems while also gaining top efficiency from the new batteries being developed to power these machines.
Argonne National Labs is Creating Aircraft Simulation Tool
Key Takeaways:
- Argonne National Laboratory is developing Aeronomie, a dynamic aircraft simulation tool designed to model and optimize the future performance of electric, hybrid, urban air mobility (UAM), and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
- Aeronomie is based on Argonne's successful Autonomie program for road vehicles and enables comprehensive flight simulations, focusing on optimizing aircraft systems and maximizing battery efficiency.
- The customizable tool allows users to combine aircraft and powerplant dynamics, study their interactions, and build virtual aircraft using predefined or custom models to capture flight environment, aerodynamics, and power systems.
