초록

The application of multicopters using a battery is limited by the short endurance due to the low energy density. A propeller is one of crucial components that determine the performance of the multicopter. In the present study, a systematic method for predicting the endurance of multicopters is described. Propeller performance database are constructed using the data from UIUC Propeller Data Site. Using the 'trendline' function of MS Excel software, the performance of the commercial propellers are represented as a function of polynomials. The multicopter's endurance is computed iteratively using Peukert's Law and considering the voltage drop effect. We evaluated the endurance of multicopters that use commercial propellers. The endurance of the multicopter was within the range of 28 min. to 36 min. It is expected that the present method can be utilized for optimal propeller selection for the given multicopters.
