| Summary: | Aiming at the problem of energy collection and consumption of solar-powered UAV under different maneuvers, an energy collection model combining solar-powered UAV attitude and solar radiation was established. Firstly, the ASHRAE model was used as the solar radiation estimation model in the flight environment. Secondly, the energy harvesting model of the solar-powered UAV is deduced by the relationship between the attitude of the UAV, the relative position of the sun and the earth. The experimental data was used to establish the energy consumption model of solar-powered UAV in different flight states. Finally, the flight time of the same mission path under different operating modes is obtained through simulation. Simulation results show that when the solar-powered UAV is hovering at a height of 3 000 meters and a radius of 50 meters, the flight time of aileron operation is 7.19% longer than power differential operation; when hovering at a radius of 170 meters, the flight time of the two operations is almost equal; when hovering at a radius of 600 meters and flying in a line, the flight time of the power differential operation is about 1.08% longer than that of the aileron operation. |
