  1. AEROSONDE UAV Propulsion system A 26 Hour 45 min. Un-manned flight over the Atlantic 27-30 lbs weight 10 feet wing span 24 cc (1.5 inch3) engine 180 grams/hour fuel consumption Prepared by : CENGIZ CAMCI UAV propulsion class DEPARTMENT OF AEROSPACE ENGINEERING THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY

  2. THE AEROSONDE UAV The Aerosonde UAV is developed and operated globally by Aerosonde Pty Ltd (AePL) and Aerosonde North America (AeNA). It has been undertaking operations for about 7 years, was the first UAV to cross the Atlantic Ocean, has flown for over 32 hrs in one stretch and has undertaken continuous operations with relay aircraft extending over several days.

  3. The great flexibility of the Aerosonde, combined with a sophisticated command and control system, enables deployment and command from virtually any location.

  4. 400 gm/[KWh] 180 gm/hour level flight 0.45 KW 400gm/[KWh] @ 5500 rpm MAX Fuel capacity 7000 gm 5000/180= 27.8 hours Transatlantic flight took 26 H 45 min FIRST GENERATION ENYA PROPULSION SYSTEM

  5. SFC comparison 400 gm/[KW.h] Enya four cycle IC engine First generation Enya 0.454 gm-f = 1 lb-f 1KW=0.75 HP 1 LB/(HP.h)=610 gm/[Kw-h] TF-53 helicopter engine HUEY 1400 HP (30 min.) SFC= 0.58 LB/[HP.h] = 0.58*610=353 gm/[KW.h] Second generation ENYA 245-300 gm/[KW.h]
