Abstract:
1. An electrical system for a passenger aircraft, comprising: an energy storage device coupled to a charge-electronics module, the charge electronics module being coupled to a generator of electricity, the energy storage device being coupled to the charge-electronics module by an energy feed line system comprising a first cross sectional area and a first length; a consumer of electrical energy coupled with the energy storage device by an energy supply line system having a second cross sectional area and a second length; wherein the energy storage device is arranged between the consumer and the generator, wherein the energy storage device decouples the consumer, such that all the power required for the consumer is drawn from the energy storage device and operation of the consumer does not directly place a load on the generator; wherein the second cross sectional area is greater than the first cross sectional area and the second length is shorter than the first length; and wherein the storage device provides a common voltage both to the energy feed line system and to the energy supply line system; and the charge-electronics module controls the power that is fed to the energy storage device via the energy feed line system.
