Argonne looks to power electric aviation with new dynamic system simulation tool

Scientists at Argonne have built software to measure how to conserve energy in flight with 21^st century vehicles — including electric and hybrid airplanes and drones.

March 12, 2020 | Computational Science, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Energy Technology and Storage

Argonne scientists are developing a new dynamic aircraft simulation tool that will support the transition to 21st Century flight. The tool, named Aeronomie, will allow engineers to simulate entire flights and test how all kinds of aircraft perform — including electric and hybrid airplanes, vehicles for urban air mobility, and unmanned aerial vehicles (shown here).
