Aerodynamic Modeling of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle using Vortex Lattice Method
Resumo
The determination of a aircraft aerodynamic characteristics is an important stage in aircraft flight simulation. In order to compose the flight aircraft equations of motions the computation of the aerodynamics stability and control derivatives is needed. In this work will presented a methodology to modeling the aerodynamic and flight dynamics characteristics of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The steady aerodynamic coefficients are calculated based on the vortex-laticce method. The research platform is the Vector-P UAV [1, 2] shown in the Fig. 1. [...]
