Global Commercial Aircraft Battery Market 2016-2020 - Research and MarketsResearch and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Commercial Aircraft Battery Market 2016-2020" report to their offering. Global Commercial Aircraft Battery Market 2016-2020, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market. In order to avoid aircraft accidents/dysfunction, Airbus shifted from using conventional Li-ion cells altogether in its jetliner the Airbus A350. Airbus has been using Ni-Cd battery chemistry so far in its aircraft, the A350 (in the models supplied to Qatar Airways). But the Ni-Cd solution presents low specific energy, high weight, and is sensitive to memory effect (i.e., deviation in the operating voltage of the battery), which is inconvenient for the modern carrier. This will result in almost double the number of batteries, a different charging system and a different battery management system (BMS). Airbus, thus, decided to employ its proprietary Li-ion battery technology to replace the Ni-Cd cells. Accordingto the report, in modern commercial aircraft, such as the Boeing (News - Alert) 787 Dreamliner, Li-ion batteries have been used as a major power source located in the forward electrical equipment bay and APU. These batteries support the refueling operations and enable to power braking systems when the aircraft is towed.
