electric power system architectures have been done as electric
power required on board of aircraft has increased significantly
through the years. This paper gives a review of the evolution of
electric power generation systems in aircraft and the trends
towards modern generation systems are also considered, giving
prominence to their challenges and feasibility.
I. INTRODUCTION
A gas turbine engine is essentially a heat engine using air as
a working fluid to provide thrust. Gas turbine engines power
