Abstract
An aircraft propelled by at least one turbojet engine on which power can be bled or injected via a high-pressure and/or low-pressure turbine shaft and including at least one gas turbine to provide power transients, having a system for converting and transporting electrical energy wherein each of the high-pressure and/or low-pressure turbine shafts is connected to a first doubly-fed asynchronous machine delivering, a first three-phase AC voltage over an AC distribution grid and a second polyphase AC voltage for a first AC/DC bidirectional converter supplying a DC voltage over a DC distribution grid, at least one second DC/AC bidirectional converter connected to the DC distribution grid converting this DC voltage into a third polyphase AC voltage supplying at least one second doubly-fed asynchronous machine engaged with a rotation shaft of the gas turbine, the second doubly-fed asynchronous machine further delivering a fourth polyphase AC voltage over the AC distribution grid.
