[b]An analysis of the efficiency of the functional matching between a flying wing MAV airframe and different types of micro propellers[/b]

Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

This paper aims to present specific methods for optimizing the design of micro propellers for small Reynolds numbers. In order to better understand the aim of this contribution, the effects of a micro propeller on the aerodynamic surfaces of a micro air vehicle (for example a flying wing configuration) are presented together with the analysis of the specific tools for the design of micro propellers. The final part aims to renew the interest in predicting the influence of the propeller-wing flow interaction on the aerodynamic characteristics of deflected slipstream and small flying wing MAV.
