Propulsion System Design Method• Goal: Design a single propulsion system capable of performing the design mission
(one prop, one gearbox, one battery system).– Undesirable to require two propulsion systems to complete design mission– Superior marketability of multi-functional aircraft
• Method:
1.) Select P/D ratio for largest efficiency flexibility (P/Dmax=1.0 ~ MaxCim Motors)
2.) Size propulsion system to meet dash requirements
2a.) Maximum propeller diameter 10 in (minimize landing gear length)
2b.) Select motor capable of providing necessary power to propeller
2c.) Set gear ratio to ensure efficient motor operation
2d.) Select batteries to supply the necessary voltage and current
3.) Ensure that loiter requirement can be met with dash-optimized system
3a.) 500 ft radius circular flight path
3b.) 50 ft/s air speed
3c.) 7 minute requirement

Pitch/Diameter Ratio
• (P/D)max = 1.0
• Higher P/D– Broader Efficient
Range of J– Greater J for Max
