Russian industrial Design & Engineering
Drone prototype, "Sphere"
The Drone prototype, "Sphere" is a light drone with GPS, monitoring and control. The development of
this drone SPHERE has been included in the frame of the Skolkovo technopark in Moscow in 2012.
Main features were :
-
complex CAD and CFD modeling
-
unique design and principle
-
mass allowance extremely low
-
unusual aerodynamics effects
-
Collaboration with Universities and Labs in Russia and France
Goal of CFD calculations:
-
optimized profile and blades angle of attack
-
define of top and bottom rotors torques
-
define of flight forces
Result of calculation:
-
Reduction of flight weight
-
Optimization of control system
