Aircraft propulsion system
An aircraft propulsion system includes a turbomachine and at least one electric motor. The motor includes a first half-motor and a second half-motor that include, respectively, a first stator and a second stator cooperating with a common rotor of the motor. The propulsion system further includes at least one first energy source (B) capable of delivering a DC voltage and at least one electric generator (PMG) driven by the turbomachine. The electric generator generates an AC voltage to form a second energy source and is associated with an active rectifier that transforms the AC voltage into a DC voltage. The value of the DC voltage is controlled by the active rectifier, the output of which is connected to the first energy source.
