Hybrid VTOL configuration is an increasingly popular choice for UAV design, combining the cruise efficiency of a conventional fixed wing aircraft while retaining the ability to operate out of limited landing space. The development of Hybrid VTOL UAV, like many complex system, may involve the use of MBSE framework that make use of analytical model to perform evaluation and verification process. Therefore, this paper proposed a power and energy model enhanced and validated with data from test flight log of a real Hybrid VTOL UAV with the purpose of future integration with MBSE framework. The results of the enhancement produced great results for power calculation at vertical takeoff, vertical landing, and fixed-wing climb, while other phases might need further enhanced with other parameter, such as density and drag uncertainty due to horizontal rotor position may affect the results. However, the results for the whole mission, indicated by total energy, is still acceptable.

摘要

Hybrid VTOL configuration is an increasingly popular choice for UAV design, combining the cruise efficiency of a conventional fixed wing aircraft while retaining the ability to operate out of limited landing space. The development of Hybrid VTOL UAV, like many complex system, may involve the use of MBSE framework that make use of analytical model to perform evaluation and verification process. Therefore, this paper proposed a power and energy model enhanced and validated with data from test flight log of a real Hybrid VTOL UAV with the purpose of future integration with MBSE framework. The results of the enhancement produced great results for power calculation at vertical takeoff, vertical landing, and fixed-wing climb, while other phases might need further enhanced with other parameter, such as density and drag uncertainty due to horizontal rotor position may affect the results. However, the results for the whole mission, indicated by total energy, is still acceptable.
