Conceptual Design and Flight Envelopes of a Light Aircraft for Mars Atmosphere
Апстракт
In this paper is presented a new conceptual design of the light aircraft for Mars atmosphere, ALPEMA. It allows atmospheric dropping (aeroshell), as well as direct take-off from Martian surface. Complex atmosphere demanded for simplified yet efficient wing geometry, capable of maximizing Lift-to-Drag ratio. Martian atmospheric pressure, density, temperature and speed of sound variations, demand a scrutinized powerplant choice. Efficient aspect ratio and drag polar lead to optimal flight envelopes as a proof of sustainability of ALPEMA project. Special performances and basic aerodynamics provide boundaries and constraints of the project, in line with similar approaches. Chosen propeller allows for ALPEMA to use maximum power capabilities of its engine, described through V-min and V-max, which are significant inputs for flight envelope. Envelope provides effective width and profile for a variety of possible missions. ALPEMA's specific propeller and engine are a certain comparative advant...age, together with its flight envelope.
