Introduction:
What are they and who uses them? Some call them drones, some apply the label
“quadcopters” as a blanket term—though they can have any number of rotors or even
be planes—the FAA calls them “unmanned aerial systems” (UAS). I prefer to call them
“unmanned aerial vehicles” (UAVs), a neutral term broad enough to safely include
pretty much the whole gamut, from Hubsan nano drones up to commercial and military
aircraft weighing hundreds of pounds and basically the size of small manned planes.
Objective :
• To study the different types of UAVs.
• To study the working of UAVs.
• To study the application of UAVs.
Types of Drones:
“Drones” can be classified on a different basis – say based on ‘usage‘
like Drones for Photography, Drones for aerial Mapping, Drones for
Surveillance etc. However, the best classification of ‘Drones’ can be
made on the basis of aerial platforms. Based on the type of aerial
platform used, there are 4 major types of drones.
1.Multi Rotor Drones
2.Fixed Wing Drones
3.Single Rotor Helicopter
4.Fixed Wing Hybrid VTOL
1.Multi Rotor Drones:-
Out of all the 4 drone types (based on aerial platform), multi-rotor drones are
the easiest to Multi Rotor drones are the most common types of drones which
are used by professionals and hobbyists alike. They are used for most common
applications like aerial photography, aerial video surveillance etc. Different types
of products are available in this segment in the market – say multi-rotor drones
for professional uses like aerial photography (whose price may range from
500USD to 3K USD) and there are lots of variants for hobby purposes like
amateur drone racing, or leisure flying (price range from 50USD to 400USD).
manufacture and they are the cheapest option available as well.
2.Fixed Wing Drones:
Fixed Wing drones are entirely different in design and build to multi-rotor type drones.
They use a ‘wing’ like the normal airplanes out there. Unlike multi-rotor drones, fixed
wing type models never utilize energy to stay afloat on air (fixed wing types can’t stand
still on the air) fighting gravity. Instead, they move forward on their set course or as set
by the guide control (possibly a remote unit operated by a human) as long as their
energy source permits.
Most fixed wing drones have an average flying time of a couple of hours.
Gas engine powered drones can fly up to 16 hours or higher. Owing to their
higher flying time and fuel efficiency, fixed wing drones are ideal for long
distance operations (be it mapping or surveillance). But they can not be
used for aerial photography where the drone needs to be kept still on the
air for a period of time.
3.Single Rotor Dones:
Single rotor drones look very similar in design & structure to actual helicopters.
Unlike a multi rotor drone, a single roter model has just one big sized rotor plus a
small sized one on the tail of the drone to control its heading. Single rotor drones
are much efficient than multi rotor versions. They have higher flying times and
can even be powered by gas engines. In aerodynamics, the lower the count of
rotors the lesser will be the spin of the object. And that’s the big reason why
quadcopters are more stable than octocopters. In that sense, single rotor drones
are much efficient than multi-rotor drones.
4.Hybrid VTOL:
These are hybrid versions combining the benefits of Fixed wing models (higher
flying time) with that of rotor based models (hover). This concept has been
tested from around 1960’s without much success. However, with the advent of
new generation sensors (gyros and accelerometers), this concept has got some
new life and direction. Hybrid VTOL’s are a play of automation and manual
gliding. A vertical lift is used to lift the drone up into the air from the ground.
Gyros and accelerometers work in automated mode (autopilot concept) to keep
the drone stabilized in the air. Remote based (or even programmed) manual
control is used to guide the drone on the desired course.
Working Principle of Drone
• The subject of Fluid dynamics plays a significant role in the design and
development of aircraft and drones. This subject consists of the
working principle of the aerodynamics of aircraft.
• A sufficient amount of upward force is required to lift the vehicle
against gravity which is named Lift.
• A force created to move the vehicle or body in motion is called thrust.
These forces can be studied using the kinematic laws of fluid flows.
• When air flows over an aerofoil and pressure, viscous and drag force
act on the profiles.
• Force is directly proportional to the velocity of air at the inlet.
• The flow pattern around the cross-section of the aerofoil or propeller
is shown below. High fluid pressure at the bottom and low pressure at
the top of the propeller causes an upward force which is called a lift.
This force is responsible for lifting the weight of an aero-plane or
drone.
• The amount of lift force depends on the angle of inclination of the
aerofoil or propeller.
• Based on the principle of conservation of energy in fluid flow
Bernoulli’s principle, the sum of all forms of energy in a fluid is
constant along the streamline.
• When air flows over an aerofoil or wing, its velocity increases at the
top portion. But the pressure of air decreases.
• In contrast, the air velocity decreases and pressure increase at the
bottom side of the blade. The next pressure difference across the
aerofoil results in an upward force which is called a lift.
• CFD modeling of flow over an aerofoil has been important in many
vehicular and aerospace industries.
APPLICATIONS OF UAV(DRONE):
If you want to save the time and money on your surveying project,
Drones can potentially help you.
If we list out the great technological success stories of the 21st century
so far, Drones are among the top of the list. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
(UAVs) are used nowadays for a wide range of commercial applications.
The phenomenal rise in drone usage has led to the development of
ever more sophisticated software, among which is 3D mapping
software. They are used in creating stunning 3D models, large
Orthographic photos, and Elevation Models too.
