With the increasing awareness of environmental protection and the increasing reduction of oil resources, full electric aircraft as a green transportation tool has attracted much attention. The use of electric drive systems instead of traditional fuel power systems for full electric aircraft not only reduces reliance on fossil fuels, but also reduces emissions and noise, improving aircraft performance and safety. Electric motors are a critical component of full electric aircraft propulsion systems, providing the necessary power to drive the aircraft. This paper introduces the development history and classification of full electric aircraft and provides a comprehensive review of the various types of electric motors used in full electric aircraft propulsion, including permanent magnet synchronous motors, switched reluctance motors, axial flux motors, superconducting motors, and multi-phase motors. Additionally, the paper discusses the future trend and challenges for electric motors in full electric aircraft propulsion systems.
