2. Electrical Propulsion System Design of a Blended Wing Body UAV
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : The conventional tube-and-wing aircraft has been around since the 1950s, with little to no innovative progress being made towards redesigning the conventional aircraft. The blended wing body (BWB) shape fuses the wing of the aircraft with the fuselage increasing structural strength while also increasing potential surface area to create lift, making it more efficient than conventional wing shapes.
