Zusammenfassung: | The present disclosure concerns an electric aircraft propulsion system. Example embodiments include an aircraft propulsion system (200) comprising: a fan (213) mounted on a central shaft (214); a first electric motor (215) mounted on the central shaft (214) and arranged to drive rotation of the fan (213) via the central shaft; and a second electric motor (216) arranged to drive rotation of the fan (213) via the central shaft (214), wherein the second electric motor (216) is coaxially mounted downstream of the first electric motor (215) and an outer diameter (D2) of the second electric motor (216) is smaller than an outer diameter (D1) of the first electric motor (215). |
