Aerodynamic-interference optimization design for a multirotor UAV based on flight-mechanics analysis
Aerodynamic interference among rotors strongly affects the flight performance and power consumption of multirotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This paper develops a flight-mechanics model that couples dynamic inflow theory, a rotor vortex-tube wake model, blade element theory (BET), and UAV rigid-body dynamics to e...
