Development and Validation of an Aeropropulsive and Aeroacoustic Simulation Model of a Quadcopter Drone

In the present work a dynamic simulation model for a quadcopter drone is developed and validated through experimental flight data. The aerodynamics of the rotors is modeled with the blade element theory combined with the Peters and He dynamic wake model, using an appropriate number of states. The ae...
