Conceptual design of a hybrid (turbofan/solar) powered HALE UAV
Mermer, Erdinç; Özgen, Serkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2016)
The aim of the thesis is to design a HALE UAV using both turbofan engine and solar energy in order to obtain 24 hours endurance with 550 lb payload capacity and 30000 ft service ceiling. During daytime, required power is obtained from solar panels. However, excess solar energy is used for charging the lithium-ion battery. It is assumed that turbofan engine is used only for climbing to the required altitude. During loiter, only solar energy and battery power are used. The design methodology consists of two m...
Conceptual Design of a Hybrid (Turbofan/solar) Powered UAV
Mermer, Erdinç; Özgen, Serkan (2017-07-03)
The aim of the study is to design a HALE UAV using both turbofan engine and solar energy in order to obtain at least 24 hours endurance with 250 kg camera and 750 kg battery total 1000 kg payload capacity and 6096m (20000 ft) to 9144 m (30000 ft) service ceiling. During daytime, required power is obtained from solar panels. Morover, excess solar energy is used for charging the lithium-ion battery. It is assumed that turbofan engine is used only for climbing to the required altitude. During loiter, only sola...
Conceptual design of a stealth unmanned combat aerial vehicle with multidisciplinary design optimization
Çakın, Uğur; Alemdaroğlu, Hüseyin Nafiz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2018)
The present study aims to develop a methodology for multi-disciplinary design optimization (MDO) of an unmanned combat aerial vehicle. At the current stage of optimization study, three disciplines are considered, which are aerodynamics, structural weight and radar cross section (RCS) signature. As objective functions, maximum range and minimum RCS signature are employed. To generate pareto-optimal solutions, multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) function of MATLAB® is performed. To get aerodyn...
Conceptual design, testing and manufacturing of an industrial type electro-hydraulic vacuum sweeper
Şahin, Emre; Albayrak, Kahraman; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
In this thesis, conceptual design, testing, development and manufacturing processes of the cleaning (elevator and fan system) and electro-hydraulic systems of an industrial type vacuum sweeper are presented. Thesis is financially supported by Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology (Turkey) and Müsan A.Ş. (Makina Üretim Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş.) under the SAN-TEZ projects with numbers 00028.STZ.2007-1 and 00623.STZ.2010-1. The main purpose is to make critical design changes on existing fan system, design...
Conceptual aerodynamic design of ramjet missiles
Demiral, Ertan; Eyi, Sinan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2017)
The prediction of aerodynamic coefficients of missiles that have air-breathing components is a challenging task during the preliminary design phase. It is considerably important to estimate missile aerodynamic coefficients accurately at the beginning of design phase to avoid poor designs which could lead to redesign at later stages of the design process. In this study, firstly an improved method is developed to predict the aerodynamic coefficients of missile configurations with air-breathing components more...
