Design, Computational Aerodynamic, Aerostructural, and Control Stability Investigations of VTOL-Configured Hybrid Blended Wing Body-Based Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Intruder Inspections

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are gaining in popularity and sophistication today’s modern world. UAVs now available a wide range of configurations. A UAV’s many applications include photography videography target tracking. The upward-pointing propellers some fixed-wing make it possible for them to take off land vertically. Surveillance intruder inspections two areas where the blended wing body (BWB) configuration shines. This is because its weight spread uniformly throughout body, radar signal weaker than that alternative configurations, there relatively small amount interference with movement. With common design factors mind, like vertical takeoff landing, aerodynamic drag, fundamental stability, optimal BWB plan form surveillance designed. CATIA used finish conceptual BWB-based UAV. fluid-structure interaction (FSI) study carried out after model has been examined ANSYS Fluent. responsiveness improved through simulation MATLAB environment proportional-integral-derivative-type altitude controller was developed. results demonstrate providing UAV an instruction enhances performance. Given flexibility suggested design, we have decided limit maximum forward speed 75 m/s rate ascension 50 m/s. Rapid one seen here quite helpful dangerous situations.
