Hi,
I am a Student of Aerospace Engineering and searching for a suitable Bachelor Project.
Does anybody has an idea? It should be a topic of aircraft systems.
Preferably a system or some components which have to be improved or redesigned.
I hope somebody can help me.
Please, make some proposals.

Thank you!!!!

Think about power generation, and ways to improve what is already there. Aircraft are getting more power hungry, so what can be done to mitigate that - schedule loading to spread demands across the flight perhaps?

Anti-icing comsumes a huge amount of power. Can you think of a different way of achieving it?

Is there a better way of controlling flight than sticking panels into the airstream? Ducted air perhaps?

In flight entertainment is a huge part of the passenger experience, and is drawing more power & resources with each new aircraft. Can it be optimised to reduce hardware, use less power and yet give passengers a better opinion of the operator?

Cooling electronics is the next major hurdle for aircraft. Can you develop a system which does not raise the drag penalty and is able to dissipate all the heat generated onboard?

There's a few for you!
