Abstract
Within the DLR internal research project HorizonUAM the department of Safety-Critical Systems and Systems Engineering focused on developing a safe and certifiable onboard system concept for an intra-city eVTOL multicopter. This poster presents the conceptual design steps of the propulsion system that was aligned to meet the EASA special Condition for Vertical Take-Off and Landing Aircraft (EASA SC-VTOL) [1] safety & reliability requirements. Initially, several studies were conducted analyzing the powertrain technologies. Then, the battery-electric propulsion system architecture was iteratively developed based on the safety assessment and validated through component sizing and simulations.
