Hardware in the loop (HIL) and power hardware in the loop (PHIL) testing are powerful tools to simulate the behavior of aircraft electrical power systems.

Impedyme’s Combined HIL and PHIL (CHP) solution is a valuable tool for improving the validation and performance of aircraft electrical power systems via providing a realistic testing environment that emulates the actual operating conditions of the aircraft, enabling the manufacturers to identify and address potential issues early in the development process and optimize the performance of aircraft systems.

​

• Impedyme’s CHP emulates the actual operating conditions of the aircraft and generates high-fidelity signals that emulate the behavior of the aircraft systems, such as power quality, load profiles, and communication protocols.

• CHP can enhance the validation and performance of more electric aircraft (MEA) systems in which traditional hydraulic and pneumatic systems are replaced with electrical systems and rely on power electronics, electric motors, and energy storage systems.

• Impedyme’s CHP solution enables manufacturers to perform comprehensive and realistic testing of MEA systems under various operating conditions and fault scenarios that are challenging to replicate in a real-world test toward identifying and addressing potential issues with the design and performance of MEA systems, such as power quality issues, electromagnetic interference, or thermal management challenges.
