What is the advantage to this new system on the A380? Are the constant speed units a common failure item?
A: Less weight and elimination of a possible failure source.
What will be the effect of slightly different engine rpms, if the frequency varys with engine speed-will they be feeding separate buses?
A: Yes, they will feed seperate buses.
Also am I right in thinking the RMS voltage would vary with the frequency as the slope of the sine curve changes? (Or would a standard regulator also compensate?)
A: Will be regulated to a constant voltage of 115V
