2. Introduction
 UAV applications:
 Archaeological surveying.
 Environmental/meteorology- climate study, storm monitoring etc.
 Military- surveillance, air strikes.
 Security- crowd monitoring and control.
 Law enforcement- traffic monitoring, search and rescue operations.
Oral Presentation
3. Project Goal
The aim of this project was to design and manufacture a Delta wing
UAV for surveillance and data acquisition purposes.
Was the goal achieved?..........................
4. Design Specifications?
 What data can/should be collected?
 Is the wing going to be a flat plate?
 Will the UAV have a fuselage?
 How about a surveillance camera?
 3D printed UAV sounds good! Hmm..
 Autonomous flight possible?
5. Methodology Applied
 Weight Estimation: Market Research.
 Airfoil Analysis: XFLR5; 2D analysis software; was intended to be used for 3D analysis of
the wing; plots of important parameters in one display interface.
 Wing Analysis: ANSYS Fluent; 3D flow simulation over the wing; manual plotting of
parameters needed.
 CAD Design: CATIA V5 & SOLIDWORKS 2014; SOLIDWORKS used to generate models for
Laser cutting machine.
 Structural Analysis: ANSYS Workbench; FEA analysis of the structure for suitable
material selection.
6. Results & Discussions
 XFLR5 results of the selected airfoil:
 CAD models of the aircraft:
 CFD analysis of the aircraft:
 FEA analysis of the model:
Meshing
Total deformation
Boundary Condition
7. Limitations
 XFLR5 was not used for 3D wing analysis.
 No previous experience of:
 3D wing analysis using ANSYS CFD.
 Using SOLIDWORKS 2014.
 FEA analysis of aircraft structure.
 Limited budget:
 Flight Data Recorder (FDR) was not bought.
8. Future Recommendations
 Use of:
 Surveillance Camera.
 Flight Data Recorder.
 Landing Gear.
 Traditional take-off and landing using runaway.
 Autonomous flight using ground system.
