Tipus: Individual
 
Lloc de realització: EETAC
 
Paraules clau:
Electric propulsion system, Number of rotor plates, Number of rotors, Aerodynamic efficiency, Drag reduction
 
Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
Multidisciplinary project where the student will be part of the work team, and will have the opportunity improve the development of the eVtol in different areas: Lift Engineering, Electrical Motor Engineering (Ducted fan), flight mechanics and avionics.
The main objective is the study and improvement of the tailcone propulsion system while working together with different departments of the Project: Aerodynamics, Propulsion, Structure & Electronics.
The work plan will be as follows:
1) Primary research of the eVtol industry and analysis of how they work with different propulsion systems.
2) Study and development of a Ducted Fan System.
3) Consider a gimbal system in the propulsion system.
4) Work in SolidWorks, Altair or Catia for design and engineering the Ducted Fan System.
5) Study of the efficiency of different setup, i.e. number of rotors and blades.
6) Study of manufacturing costs of the components.
7) Study and assembly different parts of the aircraft and their different systems.
 
Orientació a l'estudiant:
The student will learn the main features regarding electric propulsion systems. She/He has to become familiarize with the main characteristic parameters, the design, aerodynamics and optimization, efficiency, etc. Programming languages as Matlab, SolidWorks software, and Python will be learned and/or deepen. Simulations will be performed via AnsysFluent in order to find the optimal design. Supervisor and student will meet regular basis about once a week to evaluate the progress and discuss
the following steps. In case of bigger problems the student can approach the supervisor any time in order to solve the problems as soon as possible in order to avoid any hold backs.
 
 
 
Horari d'atenció a estudiants per a l'assignació de projecte:
Regular meetings of about 1-2h will be setup weekly in order to check, discuss and evaluate the progress as well to plan the following steps. In case of bigger problems extraordinary meetings will be done as soon as possible.
