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 for modeling the future performance of electric, hybrid, urban air mobility (UAM), and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
- Aeronomie simulates entire flights to optimize aircraft systems and battery efficiency, building on Argonne's successful Autonomie program for road vehicles.
- The customizable tool allows users to combine aircraft and powerplant dynamics to study system interactions and build virtual aircraft using a library of models or their own files.
