Integrated Power Distribution Unit (IPDU): Point-of-Use Power Conversion, Management, Distribution, and Protection for Aircraft Electric Power Systems
This paper presents the Integrated Power Distribution Unit (IPDU) concept, which brings together major electric power Conversion, Distribution, Management, and Protection (CDMP) functions in a single lightweight LRU. The IPDU enables CDMP functionality to be physically located at points-of-use nodes, while maintaining unified control among the several IPDUs used in an Electric Power System. IPDU functions include input power quality sensing, power conversion (Inverter, TRU, Frequency Converter, DC-DC Converter), power management (AC and DC SSPCs and Hybrid Contactors), and a control function consisting of a databus R/T, DSP control core, and a voltage-frequency-current sensor suite. The IPDU is currently being applied as a major electrical power system element within a new aircraft dual channel EPS. The three major goals of the IPDU design are Improved power management functionality (fully observable system), enhanced reliability, and reduced size and weight.
