Zusammenfassung:A propulsion system for an includes a combustion engine, a propulsor, and an electric machine 300 configured to either be driven by the combustion engine or configured to drive the propulsor. The electric machine 300 defines an axis 302. The electric machine 300 includes a rotor 304 extending along and rotatable about the axis 302, and a stator 306 having a plurality of winding assemblies 318, the plurality of winding assemblies 318 spaced along the axis 302 of the electric machine 300, each winding assembly 318 operable with the rotor 304 independently of an adjacent winding assembly 318 during operation of the electric machine 300.
