%0 Journal Article %T An analysis of the efficiency of the functional matching between a flying wing MAV airframe and different types of micro propellers %A Mircea BOSCOIANU %A Ionic£¿ C£¿RCIU %J INCAS Bulletin %D 2011 %I National Institute for Aerospace Research ¡°Elie Carafoli¡± - INCAS %R 10.13111/2066-8201.2011.3.1.4 %X This paper aims to present specific methods for optimizing the design of micro propellersfor small Reynolds numbers. In order to better understand the aim of this contribution, the effects of amicro propeller on the aerodynamic surfaces of a micro air vehicle (for example a flying wingconfiguration) are presented together with the analysis of the specific tools for the design of micropropellers. The final part aims to renew the interest in predicting the influence of the propeller-wingflow interaction on the aerodynamic characteristics of deflected slipstream and small flying wingMAV. %K MAV (micro air vehicle) %K micro propeller %K interaction effects %K scalability %U http://bulletin.incas.ro/files/mircea_boscoianu_v3is1_full.pdf
