  1. 1. Small scale VTOL aircraft using only one lift-producing motor : A study of lift capacity for a Vertical Take-Off and Landing capable aircraft

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Daniel Milenkovic; [2023]
    Keywords : Aircraft; VTOL; EDF; Mechatronics; Ardupilot; Luftfarkost; VTOL; EDF; Mekatronik; Ardupilot;

    Abstract : The usage of unmanned aerial vehicles in applications such as terrain mapping and surveillance is proliferating in the modern world. This project aims to investigate the feasibility, in terms of payload capacity and stability, of small scale winged aircraft that have the ability to lift and land vertically, while also being able to transition to normal forward flight using wings for primary lift.

  4. 4. Attenuation of fan noise with passive methods : An experimental study in the implementation of a ducted fan inside the body of a blended wing body UAV

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Mustafa Kulbay; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This report is about a novel approach to attenuation of fan noise in aerial vehicles, by way of implementing a ducted fan in the chassis of a four meter blended wing body plane. Three different one meter PVC pipes were used and their performances as silencers were tested by measuring the sound power level and calculating the insulation loss compared to a fan by itself.

  5. 5. Proposed Design and Feasibility Study of a Hybrid-Electric Propulsion System for a Ten Passenger Aircraft

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Fredrik Ollas; Gestur Ernir Viðarsson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study aims to propose a hybridized version of a propulsion system for a 10-passenger aircraft and compare it to a conventional (reference) aircraft which uses a fossil fuelled turbofan for propulsion. The hybridized powertrain includes a fossil fuelled gas turbine, which is only used for producing electricity, coupled in a series configuration with a battery storage, that provide power to two electrically ducted fans.
