VKI, Belgium, 1999. 33 p.Summary A description of the micro-air vehicle (MAV) concept and design requirements is presented. These vehicles are very small and therefore operate at chord Reynolds numbers below 20000 where very little data is available on the performance of lifting surfaces, i.e., airfoils and low aspect-ratio wings. This paper presents the results of a continuing study of the me…
XRV Rocket Chronicles, 5 pages.Reloadable solid rocket motors basically consist of a motor casing which is lined with heat resistant material and filled with a combustible propellant. The propellant is burned to provide high volumes of expanding gases, which are accelerated through a nozzle at one end of the motor to provide thrust according to Newton's third law. To help to contain these very …
This book provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the analysis and design of health management systems for cooperating unmanned aerial vehicles. Such systems rely upon monitoring and fault adaptation schemes. Motivation for their study comes from the fact that, despite the use of fault-tolerant control software and hardware embedded onboard air vehicles, overall fleet performanc…
2010. — 23 с.RPA (Rocket Propulsion Analysis) is a tool for the performance prediction of the liquid-propellant rocket engines. RPA is written in C++ programming language and can be used on MS Windows and many Linux and UNIX systems. This document presents the equations used for the combustion equilibrium and performance calculations. Results obtained from implementing these equations will …
