A Study on the Design Optimization of Micro Air Vehicles

An optimization design of an electrical-motor-powered micro air vehicle with a wing span of 320 mm is presented in this paper. The objective of optimization is its endurance. Genetic optimization algorithm is used as the primary optimizer. To reduce the number of aerodynamics analysis and to promote the efficiency of optimization, the variable fidelity optimization technique is used. The post-optimality analysis is performed and a general design rule for micro air vehicles (MAVs) is proposed according to the analysis. Our MAV has currently achieved an endurance of 20 minutes and a maximum range of 12 km. The result of test flight shows that the optimization plays a key role in the improvement of the MAV performance.
