Aerodynamic Numerical Calculation of Twin-tailboom UAV

Numerical simulation of a twin-tailboom unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) is carried out by computational fluid dynamics(CFD) software,and the aerodynamic characteristics parameter with a small angle of attack as well as the distribution of pressure,streamline,and velocity on the surface of UAV are obtained.Empirical estimation is also conducted for the aerodynamic estimation of UAV,and the results of the two methods are compared with each other.The result shows that CFD has a satisfactory accuracy in the small scale,low velocity flow simulation,and it plays an important role in the aerodynamic configuration analysis of the UAV.The simulation results can provide a theoretical reference to the further aerodynamic configuration optimization of UAV.
