Military applications emerged fairly early in the infancy of aviation, in the form of first trials to establish the superiority of the third dimension over the battlefield. Well- known examples include the balloon reconnaissance efforts made in France even before the birth of the aircraft, and it was not long before the first generation of flimsy, underpowered aircraft were being tested in a military environment. The Italians used aircraft for reconnaissance missions at Tripoli in 1910-1912, and the Americans made their first attempts at taking air power to sea as early as 1910-1911.

  • Design, Development, and Initial Testing of a Computationally-Intensive, Long-Endurance Solar-Powered Unmanned Aircraft
    Design, Development, and Initial Testing of a Computationally-Intensive, Long-Endurance Solar-Powered Unmanned Aircraft Or D. Dantsker,∗ Mirco Theile,† and Marco Caccamo‡ Renato Mancuso§ University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801 Boston University, Boston, MA 02215 In recent years, we have seen an uptrend in the popularity of UAVs driven by the desire to apply these aircraft to areas such as precision farming, infrastructure and environment monitoring, surveillance, surveying and mapping, search and rescue missions, weather forecasting, and more. The traditional approach for small size UAVs is to capture data on the aircraft, stream it to the ground through a high power data-link, process it remotely (potentially off-line), perform analysis, and then relay commands back to the aircraft as needed. All the mentioned application scenarios would benefit by carrying a high performance embedded computer system to minimize the need for data transmission. A major technical hurdle to overcome is that of drastically reducing the overall power consumption of these UAVs so that they can be powered by solar arrays. This paper describes the work done to date developing the 4.0 m (157 in) wingspan, UIUC Solar Flyer, which will be a long-endurance solar-powered unmanned aircraft capable of performing computationally-intensive on-board data processing. A mixture of aircraft requirements, trade studies, development work, and initial testing will be presented.

  • Self Powered Electric Airplanes
    Advances in Aerospace Science and Applications. ISSN 2277-3223 Volume 3, Number 2 (2013), pp. 45-50 © Research India Publications http://www.ripublication.com/aasa.htm Self Powered Electric Airplanes Adesh Ramdas Nakashe 1and C. Lokesh2 1,2Department of Aeronautical Engineering Rajalakshmi Engineering College Chennai-602105, Tamil Nadu, India. Abstract The field of aeronautical engineering began to foresee its advancements in the future, the moment it evolved. Various new technologies and techniques were discovered and implemented almost in all branches of aviation industry. One branch where the researchers are continuously working for further more development is propulsion. Many new ideas are continuously being proposed. This paper deals with the use of renewable energy as the source of power for the aircraft. It gathers or creates the energy to move ON ITS OWN, it uses NO fuel. It is electric, having motors powered by electricity for propulsion. We are going to apply the same principle of electrical airplane and this can be operated as self powered electrical airplane. Here, starting power is provided to the engine and when engine gets maximum torque it starts generating current as per wind mill principle. As it produces electricity that will be used as the input for engine, so there is no need of any external electrical supply further. Efficiency of power produced can be increase to 100% by using electromagnetic generators. So the aircraft will be self driven and electrically powered. Keywords: Renewable energy, Self-powered, Electromagnetic generators. 1. Introduction This paper deals with the conceptual design of an electrically powered commercial aircraft that can carry 30 to 40 passengers.

  • Electrical Generation for More-Electric Aircraft Using Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
    PNNL-XXXXX Prepared for the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract DE-AC05-76RL01830 Electrical Generation for More-Electric Aircraft using Solid Oxide Fuel Cells GA Whyatt LA Chick April 2012 PNNL-XXXXX Electrical Generation for More- Electric Aircraft using Solid Oxide Fuel Cells GA Whyatt LA Chick April 2012 Prepared for the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract DE-AC05-76RL01830 Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Richland, Washington 99352 Summary This report examines the potential for Solid-Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) to provide electrical generation on-board commercial aircraft. Unlike a turbine-based auxiliary power unit (APU) a solid oxide fuel cell power unit (SOFCPU) would be more efficient than using the main engine generators to generate electricity and would operate continuously during flight. The focus of this study is on more-electric aircraft which minimize bleed air extraction from the engines and instead use electrical power obtained from generators driven by the main engines to satisfy all major loads. The increased electrical generation increases the potential fuel savings obtainable through more efficient electrical generation using a SOFCPU. However, the weight added to the aircraft by the SOFCPU impacts the main engine fuel consumption which reduces the potential fuel savings. To investigate these relationships the Boeing 787-8 was used as a case study. The potential performance of the SOFCPU was determined by coupling flowsheet modeling using ChemCAD software with a stack performance algorithm. For a given stack operating condition (cell voltage, anode utilization, stack pressure, target cell exit temperature), ChemCAD software was used to determine the cathode air rate to provide stack thermal balance, the heat exchanger duties, the gross power output for a given fuel rate, the parasitic power for the anode recycle blower and net power obtained from (or required by) the compressor/expander.

  • Integration of Photovoltaic Cells Into Composite Wing Skins
    INTEGRATION OF PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS INTO COMPOSITE WING SKINS By JAMES LEONARD Bachelor of Science in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 2010 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE December, 2014 INTEGRATION OF PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS INTO COMPOSITE WING SKINS Thesis Approved: Dr. Jamey Jacob Thesis Adviser Dr. Andy Arena Dr. Joe Conner ii Name: JAMES LEONARD Date of Degree: DECEMBER, 2014 Title of Study: INTEGRATION OF PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS INTO COMPOSITE WING SKINS Major Field: MECHANICAL AND AEROSPACE ENGINEERING ABSTRACT: The integration of thin film solar cells into composite wing skins is explored by first testing and evaluating the integration of single solar cells into small composite samples with no encapsulating material, fiberglass encapsulating material and polyurethane film encapsulating material for the impacts that these processes and materials have on solar cell performance, aircraft performance and solar cell durability. Moving on from single cell samples, three encapsulation methods were chosen to be used in the construction of two wings utilizing arrays of multiple solar cells with each encapsulation method being utilized on 3 of the four wing skins comprising the 2 complete wings. The fourth wing skin was integrated with a functioning removable solar panel manufactured to the contours of the wing. Performance and weight data gathered from the development and fabrication of single cell and wing-skin specimens was used to develop a basic model of endurance for each encapsulation material evaluated in order to compare the effects of encapsulation materials and processes on the primary parameter that the integration of the photovoltaic cells into the wing skins is intended to improve.

  • Laser Power Beaming Fact Sheet I
    LASER POWER BEAMING FACT SHEET I. What is laser power beaming? Laser power beaming is the wireless transfer of energy (heat or electricity) from one location to another, using laser light. The basic concept is the same as solar power, where the sun shines on a photovoltaic cell that converts the sunlight to energy. Here, a photovoltaic cell converts the laser light to energy. The key differences are that laser light is much more intense than sunlight, it can be aimed at any desired location, and it can deliver power 24 hours per day. Power can be transmitted through air or space, or through optical fibers, as communications signals are sent today, and it can be sent potentially as far as the Moon. The benefits of wireless power beaming include The narrow beam allows greater energy concentration at long distances; The compact size of the receiver allows easy integration into small devices; Power is transmitted with zero radio frequency interference (e.g. to wi-fi/cellular systems); Electrical power can be utilized for applications where it was previously uneconomical or impractical to run wires, including aerial refueling of UAVs and other aircraft; Power beaming can use any existing power source to power the laser; and Power can be delivered through free space or over fiber optic cable. II. What are the uses for laser power beaming? Although still largely in the R&D stages, wireless power has many potential uses in the real world. These include powering air, ground, and underwater vehicles, replacing electric power wiring and transmission lines in difficult places, and even launching rockets into orbit.
