Summary:To provide a propulsion system for an aircraft.SOLUTION: A propulsion system for an aircraft includes a combustion engine, a propulsor, and an electric machine 300 configured to either be driven by the combustion engine or drive the propulsor. The electric machine defines an axis 302. The electric machine includes a rotor 304 extending along and rotatable about the axis, and a stator 306 having a plurality of winding assemblies 318A-C, the plurality of winding assemblies spaced along the axis of the electric machine, each winding assembly operable with the rotor independently of an adjacent winding assembly during operation of the electric machine.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】航空機用推進システムを提供する。【解決手段】航空機用推進システムは、燃焼エンジンと、推進器と、燃焼エンジンによって駆動されるか、または推進器を駆動するように構成された電気機械３００とを含む。電気機械は、軸線３０２を画定する。電気機械は、軸線に沿って延び、かつ軸線を中心に回転可能なロータ３０４と、複数の巻線アセンブリ３１８Ａ〜Ｃを有するステータ３０６とを含み、複数の巻線アセンブリは、電気機械の軸線に沿って離間し、各巻線アセンブリは、電気機械の動作中に隣接する巻線アセンブリとは独立してロータと共に動作可能である。【選択図】図４
