UNMANNED HELICOPTER MODEL USED FOR AERIAL AGRICULTURAL CROPS MONITORING

Journal Title: Journal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 2

Abstract

There are situations when the agricultural crops in the field are needed to be monitored becausewhen certain possible pest factors appear to be able to intervene in time without being affected theproduction on the cultivated surface. It is about field crops cultivated on large surfaces where varioustracking or monitoring devices are needed to be used. These devices are unmanned aerial vehicles thatusually carry on board a high-resolution camera in order to achieve the proposed crops monitoringobjectives. This paper presents the assembly model of an unmanned aerial vehicle that can be used foraerial surveillance of field crops set up on large land areas. A three-dimensional model of the helicopterwas built using the Solid Edge ST8 Academic software and analyzed with the ANSYS CFX program inorder to emphasize the operating parameters depending on the initially declared conditions. Also theobtained results are presented from the computational fluid dynamics analysis conducted on the virtualhelicopter model.
