Electric cars are becoming increasingly mainstream, but air travel is another huge source of emissions, and still reliant on fossil fuels. The Rolls-Royce Accel Electric...
“Staking the claim for the all-electric world-speed record is a fantastic achievement for the Accel team and Rolls-Royce,” says the company’s CEO, Warren East. “The advanced battery and propulsion technology developed for this programme has exciting applications for the advanced air mobil...
劳斯莱斯以其飞机发动机而闻名,以其世界标准的超豪华轿车而闻名。飞机和汽车部门现在是独立的公司,但随着罗尔斯·罗伊斯公司采用零排放飞机旨在突破全电动飞机的最高速度记录,进入电动飞机推进领域,历史一直延续。 ionBird机身与电子技术专家YASA合作,将配备飞机上安装的能量密度最高的电池,拥有6000多个电池,效率达到90%。
Spirit of Innovation, Rolls-Royce’s all-electric plane, has reportedly taken its first flight on Wednesday for 15 minutes. This take-off is a step further towards establishing a record for the fastest electric aircraft in the world. The plane took off from the Boscombe Down military testing ...
Rolls-Royce has completed testing of the groundbreaking technology that will power the world's fastest all-electric plane. All the technology has been tested on a full-scale replica of the plane's core, called an 'ionBird', including a 500hp electric powertrain powerful enough to set world ...
Rolls-Royce’s automobile and airplane divisions were spun off from one other in the early 1970s and now have separate owners. The two companies still share the same name, though, along with the same hunger for excellence. Just look at the electric plane the non-carmaking Rolls-Royceannounce...
re not thinking about is the most power-dense battery pack ever assembled for an aircraft, capable of providing enough energy to fuel 250 homes or fly from London to Paris on a single charge. Or set a world air speed record of over 300mph, as the team behind R...
As the size of the proposed plane grew from 150 passengers towards 200, Rolls-Royce realised that the RB211 could be adapted by reducing the diameter of the fan and removing the first IP compressor stage to produce an engine with the necessary 37,400 lbf (166,000 N) thrust. The new ...
Rolls-Royce completes ground-testing of technology set to power the world’s fastest all-electric plane
Work to build the plane will be carried out in a single hangar found in a corner of the county of Gloucestershire, England. The all-electric aircraft will be “powered by the most powerful battery ever built for flight” according to Matheu Parr, the project lead for this Rolls-Royce miss...
