 \section{Turboelectric Theory}
 NASA defines turboelectric systems as being at the least a turboshaft coupled to an electric generator, which power electric motors which then drive propellers. This configuration can be further categorized in accordance with whether the turbine engine drives a load directly.
 These systems, refered to as "Partial Turbo Electric" \cite{nasa_prop_overview}, employ the use of either turbofans or turboprops in addition to being coupled to electric generators.
