Notice: As of 2014 and for the forthcoming years, the publication frequency/periodicity of WSEAS Journals is adapted to the 'continuously updated' model. What this means is that instead of being separated into issues, new papers will be added on a continuous basis, allowing a more regular flow and shorter publication times. The papers will appear in reverse order, therefore the most recent one will be on top.

ABSTRACT: Based on the analysis, mathematical models and simulation of the power of modern aircrafts (conventional, MEA/AEA) in the terms of key components of on-board autonomous power supply system ASE, which are multi-pulse rectifiers (6-, 12- and 18-, 24-) pulse, and even (48-, 60-) pulse, presented in this paper, the main importance of these components of ASE (PES, EPS) system was highlighted. The key objective of the paper is to make an analysis, presentation of the mathematical models and simulation of selected multipulse rectifiers, used not only on civil airplanes compatible with the concept of the more/all electric aircraft of Airbus and Boeing airline corporations (A-380 and A-350XWB, B-787) and on military Lockheed Martin JSF aircraft (Joint Strike Fighter) F-35 and F-22 Raptor, but also for 'conventional' military aircraft (F-18, F-16) and civilian (A-320, B-777). Additionally, in the final part of the paper, the analysis and exemplary simulations of main components of ASE in the field of PES system (multi-pulse rectifiers) based on mathematical models have contributed to highlighting the key practical applications in terms of the trend of MEA/AEA

KEYWORDS: study (modeling, simulation); multi-pulse rectifiers; more/all electric aircraft
