R&D Dynamics Corporation has received a contract from Airbus UpNext to develop air compressors for its new demonstrator aircraft for the next generation of non-propulsive power through the use of hydrogen fuel cells. On traditional aircraft this non-propulsive power is required for air conditioning, onboard lighting and other inflight applications. Airbus UpNext will replace the onboard APU on an A330 aircraft with a hydrogen fuel cell system that will generate electricity.
