Capacitors for Aerospace Energy Storage and More-Electric Design – On-Demand Webinar
Instructed by Mr. Roger Brewer, Technical Fellow, Electrical Power Systems, Battery Research
This nearly two-hour focused talk will explore the merits and limitations of capacitor technology to support some of the more challenging energy storage applications of the future and also provide a brief history of various failure modes encountered in certain types of capacitors in Aerospace. The talk will also focus on the merits of capacitor technology to improve (augment) a battery supply in a high pulse load condition typical of a More-Electric-Aircraft design and begin with a few basics of capacitor technology.

Description
Capacitors are a technology that may have critical merit in various applications for More Electric design. However, a more thorough examination is required to understand both the benefits and constraints of capacitor technology as compared to battery technologies. Given the evolving and demanding needs of More-Electric-Aircraft, a close examination of capacitor technology is needed at this time.

Roger Brewer, Technical Fellow, Electrical Power Systems, Battery Research, Lockheed Martin Company: With 32 years of experience at Lockheed Martin, Roger started his career in Electrical Engineering at the Missiles and Space Systems Business Unit in Sunnyvale California supporting power component reliability assessments and investigations for the TRIDENT II Missile program. Since 1993, he has been with the Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Business Unit at both the Marietta Georgia and Ft. Worth Texas sites supporting aircraft power systems and related technology development for a variety of platforms including the: F-22, C-130, C-5, P3/S3 Navy Programs, Advanced Development Programs, Corporate Engineering Subject Matter expertise support and more recently the F-35. He has provided several presentations and given talks, both at internal Lockheed Martin conferences, business engagements and at industry energy and power conferences (including SAE Power, AIAA and Standards Conferences, iMAPS High Temperature Electronics Conference and the Electric Double Layer Capacitor Conference), outlining research being performed to improve aircraft power system performance in both existing and future platforms and key evolving applications for energy storage and power electronics technology in aircraft. Roger holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Illinois and a Master of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering from North Carolina State University. He has three daughters, enjoys cooking, cycling and time with his wife and family. Roger now serves Lockheed Martin as a Technical Fellow in his discipline.
